Uptown:
Located north of Downtown Dallas, Uptown encompasses the neighborhoods of State Thomas, Knox Park, West Village and Victory Park. Known as one of the most pedestrian-friendly areas in Dallas, Uptown allows residents and visitors to ditch the car and instead stroll to their desired destination. From sidewalk cafés and unique boutiques to upscale restaurants and trendy bars, excitement in Uptown Dallas is only just a few steps away.
Lively McKinney Avenue, which runs through the center of Uptown Dallas, brings people directly to Dallas’ central business district, where a number of office, high-end hotels and retail venues are located. Residents here can jump on the McKinney Avenue Trolley and head over the West Village, where they can catch a movie or a bite to eat.
Klyde Warren Park, the 5 acre park being constructed over Woodall Rodgers freeway will soon connect Uptown Dallas to the Arts District. The park is expected to open this fall.
West Village:
In the heart of affluent Uptown lies a genuine in-town neighborhood catering to the urban dwellers of Dallas. This is a place where bustling cafes, restaurants and lounges spill onto the streets. Sidewalks lined with trees accommodate the strolling shoppers. The classic American architecture offers a creative-edge and an enduring spirit. Since opening in 2001, the development has added two additional phases with its largest expansion yet to come. West Village is an evolving, walkable shopping and dining district.
State Thomas:
Located a short distance from the trolley cars and bustling activity on McKinney Avenue is the residential neighborhood of State Thomas.

Some of the most interesting shops, antique galleries and restaurants in Dallas can be found in the Knox Park area. Located one block from prestigious Highland Park, this rejuvenated neighborhood offers many upscale condominium and townhome living opportunities, both for sale and lease.

East Dallas’ most prestigious area, with beautiful Tudor-style homes built in the 1930s through the 1960s. Lakewood offers a plethora of small restaurants, boutiques, and access to White Rock Lake. There are meticulously groomed cycling/jogging trails for those with a love of the outdoors, and gorgeous views of the lake.
Bishop Arts/Kessler Park:
Kessler Park is often referred to as Dallas’ hidden jewel of a neighborhood. Many Dallas observers, and media publications, have referred to it as perhaps the most beautifully situated residential area of the city, with attractive, hilly topography, old-growth trees, atmospheric beauty and impressive architecture that would be the pride of any city. Its close access to two interstate highways (I-30 and I-35E) makes getting from Kessler Park to any other part of the city a quick and easy process. The cohesiveness and amazing productivity sponsored and coordinated by its active neighborhood association (“KNU”), is unsurpassed in the City of Dallas.
The neighbors of Kessler Park, named for Dallas’ first City Planner, George E. Kessler, tend to be very proud of their homes, their streets, and their public spaces.
Dallas is home to five world renown major league sports franchises, many Fortune 500 companies, and made of the stuff that inspires TV series and a worldwide reputation of prosperity. As the ninth-largest city and part of the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the nation, Dallas covers approximately 343 square miles and has a population of more than 1.2 million. The ultra-modern and sophisticated city attracts worldwide travelers, making the area the No. 1 visitor and leisure destination in Texas and one of the finest places in the world to live and do business. Dallas truly is the center of the country and with business-friendly municipal and state incentives as well as public-private partnerships to attract business, Dallas continues to attract new residents while retaining its natives who could never imagine life elsewhere.

It offers a multitude of living options, including neighborhoods housing some of the highest net worth individuals in the nation, to numerous established and new master-planned family neighborhoods, as well as eclectic urban lofts and high-rises.
There’s nothing like living in the heart of it.

More Americans Say Now is a Good Time to Sell! Recently relea
"Nick Walton did a fantastic job selling our home in just 4 short weeks and for our full asking price! Nick featured our home on his website and blog and put the house on the Realtor tour. All that generated a lot of showings and great suggestions on the items that needed attention to get the home sold. And some quick thinking on his part salvaged the deal when things were at a stalemate. Thanks Nick, we really appreciate your dedication and hard-work towards getting our home sold quickly and at the price we wanted and needed."
