Central Mall Port Arthur is opening the doors to new businesses, more customers, job creation, and increased tax revenue for our community.

When businesses consider where to locate or expand, infrastructure is one of the first things site selectors evaluate. They want to know: Is the infrastructure in place to support business growth and future development?

The Port Arthur Economic Development Corporation is proud to support the continued growth of Central Mall by providing an incentive to assist with critical infrastructure upgrades.

Investing in infrastructure is about more than making improvements today, it’s about creating an environment where businesses can invest, grow, and create opportunities in Port Arthur for years to come.

Central Mall is set for parking, signage, utility and EV charging upgrades through a $1.3 million Port Arthur EDC infrastructure incentive.
