2026 Welcome to Waxhaw

CEO / Master Artist Lisa Reyes & The Team

A Message from Mayor Murray

As we look back on the past year, I am filled with a deep gratitude for the opportunity to serve our remarkable little Town of Waxhaw. The spirit of Waxhaw shines brightest through the people who call it home. 2025 gave me countless reminders of why our Town is such a special place.

It has been a joy to preside over many of our beloved events, including the Kaleidoscope Festival, Autumn Treasures, Wreaths Across America, Fourth of July Parade, our 9/11 Remembrance, and our annual Veterans Day Ceremony, just to name a few. Each gathering reflects the pride, compassion, and patriotism that defines the Town of Waxhaw. I have especially enjoyed the opportunity to meet our residents during all these events. Whether it's listening to the great stories of our veterans' service, welcoming new businesses and business owners, or celebrating our economic growth through ribbon cuttings for retail shops, restaurants, and beauty services, I'm very proud to serve and support all of you.

This past year was also an election year, and we welcome new members to our Board of Commissioners. I look forward to working alongside them as we continue the important work of keeping Waxhaw the fun, friendly, and thriving town it has always been.

Looking ahead, we have some very exciting projects underway. We've welcomed a new grocery store along with a new traffic pattern at Pine Oak Road that ensures safety and mobility along the NC-16 corridor. Other significant transportation improvements that we expect to complete in 2026 include the Kensington Drive Widening project, the new traffic signal and pedestrian enhancements at Millbridge Parkway and Kensington Drive, and the realignment and signal installation at Pine Oak Road and Waxhaw-Marvin Road. Each of these investments will help improve mobility, safety, and connectivity for our residents.

Our Capital Projects are progressing as well. Our new Learning Center is expected to open soon and will expand our programming opportunities in areas of technology, health, and wellness and more, all in partnership with the Union County Library. This is an important step in enhancing educational and enrichment opportunities for all ages.

We are also proud to have secured several competitive grants in 2025, supporting initiatives such as downtown pedestrian-safety bollards, new trail connections including the Prescot Connector, and additional resources for our Police Department. These grants help us stretch your tax dollars further while investing in the amenities and safety features our growing community deserves.

Finally, as we approach America’s 250th birthday in 2026, Waxhaw’s America 250 Committee has already begun planning meaningful experiences to commemorate this historic milestone. I look forward to celebrating this momentous occasion with all of you.

Thank you for your continued support, your engagement, and your love for Waxhaw. It remains my honor to serve as your mayor, and I’m excited for the year ahead.

Robert

Water Tower

The iconic 49,000-gallon stainless-steel tower stands as a landmark in downtown Waxhaw, situated near the intersection of Highway 75, Highway 16, and the railroad tracks that bisect the town. Constructed in 1940, the tank served as the town’s primary water supply for decades until modern ground water tanks took over its role. Today, the area beneath the tower, known as Water Tower Community Corner, hosts a variety of lively events throughout the year, making it a vibrant hub of activity. This historic structure remains one of the most recognizable and cherished symbols of downtown Waxhaw, blending nostalgia with community spirit.

Pedestrian Bridge

Built in 1888 as part of a railroad line to Atlanta, the Pedestrian Bridge has evolved from a vital artery for vehicles and pedestrians into a cherished landmark symbolizing the town’s history and charm. Converted to a pedestrian-only pathway in 1941, it became a community gathering spot and was revitalized in 2008 through a collaboration between the Town of Waxhaw and CSX Transportation, blending modern updates with its historic character. Today, the bridge offers a unique experience, from feeling the vibrations of passing trains to enjoying views of the vibrant downtown, making it a beloved destination that honors Waxhaw’s railroad roots while embracing its future.

Community Well and Jug

The original well, dug around 1900, served the trains and crews of the Waxhaw depot and was in use until the 1920s. Today, a replica well built in 1989 commemorates the town’s original community well, which once stood nearby. A large clay urn, initially used at the Rodman-Heath Mill also marks Waxhaw's industrial heritage. In the mid-1980s, the urn was relocated from the mill to the Dare Steele Memorial Garden before being moved again around 2003 to its current downtown location near the well, symbolizing Waxhaw's historical and economic legacy.

There have been 40 gold mines in Union County since the county was formed in 1842. In the early years, local farm laborers and tenant farmers often worked in these mines during the farming off-season.

The Downtown Waxhaw Association (DWA) works closely with downtown businesses and property owners, town staff, and volunteers who share a passion for celebrating what makes downtown so special!

The Downtown Waxhaw Association Board consists of 11 members, including representatives from the Town of Waxhaw, downtown business owners, Waxhaw residents, and community volunteers. We have three volunteer led action teams – Promotions, Design, and Economic Vitality – and meet regularly to plan community events, lead beautification initiatives, support local businesses, and advocate for the continued success of downtown.

Our board and volunteers have been working on several exciting projects. We’re completing a Downtown Master Plan that will set the community’s vision for downtown for the next 5-10 years. We’ve added new public art, including sculptures and crosswalk murals. And we’re planning several new, business-friendly retail events to increase foot traffic and sales for our downtown businesses.

Waxhaw is a part of a group of collaborative leaders from around the country that strengthen communities through preservation-based economic development – Main Street America. For more than 40 years, Main Street Communities have preserved historic districts across the U.S., have created more than 780,000 jobs and generated more than $107 billion in local investment.

Want to get involved? We’re looking for volunteers and Friends of Downtown that want to help further the economic prosperity of Downtown Waxhaw. Visit downtownwaxhaw.com to check out downtown events, sign-up for our monthly newsletter, and learn how to get involved!
