These neighborhoods between the Park Cities and Downtown have been transformed into what can only be classified as an urban revolution when compared to what these neighborhoods were like in the mid to late 1990s. The area can be broken down into sub-neighborhoods – each with its own unique look and feel. The Knox /Travis area, just south of Highland Park, is made up of many restaurants and furniture stores such as Crate & Barrel, Restoration Hardware, Weirs, and Nicholson-Hardie to name a few. Many adjacent town homes and condominiums make this one of Dallas’ great urban areas where one can walk, work, play and live. West Village is just to the south toward downtown and has many fine restaurants and hip retail stores. Head west and Turtle Creek Boulevard winds along scenic Turtle Creek and features many of Dallas’ most exclusive high-rises such as The Vendome, The Mayfair and The Claridge with its million dollar penthouses. The Mansion district is close by with its five star luxury hotel and sister properties such as the Cresta Bella and the Plaza Turtle Creek. These high-rises offer some unique amenities such as private movie screening rooms, yoga studios, rooftop lap pools and libraries. North Oaklawn, located just west of Knox/Travis and south of Highland Park, is a great neighborhood for those who love to walk and socialize along its eclectic streets of traditional duplexes, new town homes and condos. The Drexel Highlander, which sits on the edge of Highland Park, is an 8-story high-rise with 84 residences. To the southwest of this area is the up and coming SOLO neighborhood and Perry Heights. The Katy Trail slices through the middle of these neighborhoods and connects them to the Victory center via a three and a half mile, 12-foot wide concrete “wheels” trail and a 3.1-mile soft surface walk and jog trail. To the west is Maple Springs and from here new development continues all the way to the convention district.
