Bishop Arts District
Bishop Avenue at 7th Street
Dallas, TX 75208
Hip. Ethnic. Young. Old. Gay. Straight. Rich. Poor. On most any day, you see all of those - and more - walking the streets of the Bishop Arts District in North Oak Cliff. In a city that lacks enough public spaces for Dallas' salad bowl of peoples to gather, the district is a wonderful exception. Like most oases, however, you probably don't know it's there. Come discover the collection of restaurants and shops that run from Aztec/Mayan food to notary publics.
Mockingbird Station
Mockingbird Lane
Dallas, TX 75206
The entertainment district features plenty of trendy spots to eat, shop and more. Residential lofts offer views of the district and downtown Dallas. It's conveniently located next to the DART station at the northeast corner of Mockingbird and Central Expressway.
This old-time shopping center, nestled in University Park across from SMU, has a neighborhood feel, a cute little fountain and cozy places to grab a nibble. An eclectic collection of unique restaurants and shops fills the three-block area, which includes such beloved spots as Kuby's Sausage House, an Eisenhower-era full-service gas station and the original Burger House.
Stockyards National Historic District
131 E Exchange
Fort Worth, TX 76106
Phone: 800-433-5747
Though the redbrick-paved streets are cleaner now and the area has been redesigned for family-friendly fun, some things haven't changed. Every day at 11:30 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Fort Worth Herd (the Stockyards' collection of longhorn cattle) fill the streets in a touristy cattle drive. Livestock is still housed here. People shop till they drop. And there are plenty of places to wet your whistle.
Sundance Square (Downtown Fort Worth)
Houston and Third Street
Fort Worth, TX 76102
Phone: 817-339-7777
This entertainment district – named after Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid who hid out here – is the heart and soul of Fort Worth. Bounded by Throckmorton, Calhoun, Second and Fifth streets and containing 14 blocks of redbrick-paved streets, it maintains 19th-century architecture while keeping a young and hip vibe and sporting a cowboy cool appropriate for its Chisholm Trail roots.
Uptown/Knox-Henderson
West of Lemmon Ave at Central Expy
Dallas, TX 75205
Phone: 214-871-2825
Uptown, Knox and Henderson are actually three separate areas, but they're all just north of downtown and offer a mix of high-end shopping, award-winning restaurants and fun places to hang out.
