Home Depot Construction Moves Forward in Celina, Texas

The new Home Depot planned for Preston Road and Ownsby Parkway keeps moving forward. Earlier filings pointed to a 2025 start and a 2026 opening. The site was still untouched in March 2025, but several contractor sources now list the project as active.

Construction

Contractor listings now include the Celina Home Depot, confirming work has advanced. Potts Concrete shows the project in its gallery, suggesting slab work is planned or underway. Cloudloft Development also lists the store as under construction. The exact start date is still unverified, but the project appears active and on schedule.

Location

The store will sit at the northwest corner of Preston Road and Ownsby Parkway. The area continues to fill with new anchors. Local development listings group Home Depot with nearby Loweโ€™s and Costco, which are already in visible construction phases. Contractor activity supports early site work even without new imagery.

Home Depot continues expanding in fast-growing suburbs, and Celina fits that trend. The store was filed at just over 137,000 square feet, though some reports listed a smaller size. The incentive agreement requires a certificate of occupancy by July 2026 and opening by late summer. The active contractor activity aligns with that timeline.
