Sienna TX History

The land where Sienna now sits used to be a sugar and cotton plantation. Jonathan D. Waters (originally from South Carolina) purchased the tract of land in 1840. By 1872, the land changed hands and again in 1913 (to the former mayor of Houston, Thomas H. Scanlan).

Between the 1950s to the early 1970s, the heirs of Scanlan entrusted the property to the Catholic diocese of Houston, who used it as a retreat. They called it "Sienna Plantation," after Siena, in Tuscany, Italy.

Johnson Development Corp. purchased the property and broke ground in 1978. In the 1980s, development stopped but picked up again in the 1990s.

The community is made up of several neighborhoods, with homes from reputable builders like Newmark Homes, Perry Homes, Ryland Homes, Trendmaker Homes, Taylor Morrison, Toll Brothers, and Fairmont Homes, among others.

Today, Sienna is one of the finest master-planned communities south of Houston. Upon completion, the community is projected to have more than 16,000 homes. Commercial spaces are also slated for Sienna.
