r/Rockwall

Recently moved to Rockwall with my family. We love it so far and like the small town feel. Before moving to Rockwall we lived in Downtown Dallas and Downtown Houston before that. So we wanted somewhere quiet and safe for the kiddos. We went to Bin 303 a couple of times and absolutely loved their food. Their employees are also very welcoming and respectful. However, i noticed that we get so many (not friendly) stares from the restaurant patrons.. I know it is probably because my wife wears a hijab. I just notice it much more at that specific restaurant. Anyone had similar experiences there? Or is there something i should know about that place? Should i avoid it in the future? Lol

Anyone know what happened on the 66 bridge last night around 10:00pm? The bridge was closed and I saw a helicopter searching the water.

If I rent out unused office space in Rockwall. Would you be willing to pay $35 a day for one cubicle? We have about 10 cubicles free. A conference room (up to 6 people) and a training room (up to 12 people) could be rented for half a day or a full day. Not sure on pricing for those meeting spaces. The cubicles would include wifi and access to coffee (hot & iced), tea, hot cocoa and filtered water/ice. Parking is free. Thoughts?

Thanks for any other feedback on this idea.

hi all!

I moved here back in May for work in the city. Dallas is too far of a drive for me to go to any of the late night coffee shops and such… where at in rockwall could I go late at night when I can’t sleep and want to journal ? Is the harbor open 24/7 for people to freely roam?

I’m a terrible sleeper and just want somewhere to drive and sit in my car while I chill, or walk around. I’m a woman so preferably somewhere well lit, and safe.

thanks !

ps, if you’re normal and my age (20s), please reach out. I need more friends here that are my age desperately lol. I was such a socialite at my college so coming here and knowing nobody has kind of sucked :,)

Dallas is spending roughly $800 million to rebuild the I-30 crossing over Lake Ray Hubbard, but this project is about far more than one bridge.

The video traces how a reservoir built in the 1960s cut across a major east-west travel path, how old U.S. 67 evolved into the modern I-30 corridor, and why this crossing became one of the most failure-prone choke points on the east side of the metro.

As Rockwall County grew rapidly and lane capacity tightened across the lake, congestion worsened and redundancy remained weak.

TxDOT’s response is a massive corridor rebuild that widens main lanes, adds frontage-road bridges, and tries to make the crossing function better when crashes or breakdowns happen. But the bigger question is whether that solves the problem for long.

The video looks at the engineering, the cost, the growth pressure, and the debate over whether this project creates lasting relief or simply buys time before demand catches up again.

Who is the Brain Surgeon that closed the east bound I30 on ramp right before HEB. It has been closed for months for the freeway project. It could still be in use today. But no they want you to set in traffic to go through a red light intersection wasting a lot of gas and time. Come on man!
