Good morning, Waco.

Waco’s first Black-owned barbershop, Jockey Club, opened in 1920 and moved to Elm Street after urban renewal; it reopened in 2016 to serve as a community hub with restored chairs and memorabilia (designated a Historic Landmark in 2023).

A panel discussion at the Rotary Club on Monday — where supporters and opponents weighed in on a proposed $10 billion data center north of Waco — highlighted mixed views on its potential economic boost and community impacts.
