Welcome to Hawn Plaza
Located in the heart of Downtown Temple, Texas, Hawn Plaza is the premier destination for urban living that combines historic charm, modern comfort, and walkable convenience. Comprised of two distinct residences — Hawn Tower and Hawn West — Hawn Plaza offers a unique opportunity to live, work, and play in one of Central Texas’s most revitalized downtown districts.
Historic Architecture Meets Modern Design
Hawn Plaza sits at the center of Temple’s cultural and economic renaissance. Originally part of the iconic Hawn Hotel, Hawn Tower has been lovingly restored to preserve its architectural character while offering contemporary amenities and stylish interiors. Just steps away, Hawn West blends modern design with mixed-use functionality, featuring retail on the ground floor and sleek apartments above.
Whether you’re drawn to historic detail or modern flair, both Hawn Tower and Hawn West offer comfortable, thoughtfully designed floorplans — from efficient studios to spacious one- and two-bedrooms — all in a vibrant urban environment.
A Thriving Downtown Neighborhood on the Rise
Temple’s downtown transformation — accelerated by developments like Hawn Plaza — has reignited interest in urban living. With improved streetscapes, new businesses, community events, and a strong economic outlook, the area is emerging as a desirable place to live, invest, and thrive.
Your Business at the Heart of Downtown Temple
At Hawn Plaza our ground-floor retail and office suites put you on Central Avenue, steps from the Arcadia Theatre, local favorites, and the residents of Hawn Tower and Hawn West. With garage parking for customers and staff, and just minutes from Baylor Scott & White Medical Center and I-35, it’s a location built for foot traffic and convenience.
Arcadia Theatre — A Historic Icon Reborn
Just feet from Hawn Plaza is the Arcadia Theatre — a beautifully restored landmark that first opened in 1928 and quickly became Temple’s favorite entertainment destination. Built in an ornate Spanish-Atmospheric style, the Arcadia originally hosted silent films, vaudeville, and live performances from stars like Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, and Robert Mitchum.
After decades of dormancy, the Arcadia has been meticulously renovated and reopened as a multi-purpose event and performance venue, hosting concerts, weddings, community gatherings, and special events — all steps from your front door.
“Once again, the Arcadia stands as a shining symbol of Temple’s history and renewal — where the magic of the past meets the promise of the future.”
