Awesome stuff happening in Dallas I'm really excited. I know there is more to come.

I actually liked that street a lot because of the older feel that it has compared to the rest of the metro. Very few areas in the metro have the feel that east Dallas/Lakewood have. I like it more than the park cities and I really wish developers don't tear down anything more. There is tons of vacant land in east Dallas. I hope they build there. Lakewood is already beautiful as it is.

You say the name and who shows up?

See the thing is that you can actually walk from Downtown Dallas to Uptown Dallas. Can't really say that for Houston. Houston is all about how the towers look from the freeway and from afar.

The Dallas galleria area kind of reminds me of Houston. I don't know what it is... Just the whole design of it reminds me of Houston.

Yes you are tight. It does look better.

So once again you basically said that 2727 Wesleyan is better because it's taller. But okay okay I digress. We just have different priorities of what we want in our cities.

And with all due respect many Houston people get too caught up in how cool skylines look from afar. Sic'EmBears is right. One Uptown is stellar because it adds a lot more to the neighborhood and increases the desirability of the place than if you you made it look cool for people driving in 75 or 35 or whatever freeway. More and more of these is what creates a true urban environment; they don't have to be very very tall in order to create a good urban environment.

Here we go again smh.

I bought and am currently buying property around there; don't know much about anything but hope it turns out to be a good investment. Do you guys think that this park would be plus for my investment?

Because some people here get offended when others post pretty renderings of buildings planned in Dallas lol. They start telling us that it might be that WE are insecure.

Dallas and Houston are the biggest cities in Texas. San Antonio doesn't even compete with Austin and it's fallen way behind but hey thanks for the expansive city limits San Antonio has they can call themselves the second largest city in Texas.

Nah I just come here for further discussion sometimes the other sites get boring. I don't understand this type of behavior on the Internet. Only here is there really a competition between people from both cities but some of the people here are ridiculously pessimistic about Dallas. I remeber once in DallasMetropolis there was this guy trying to put down Houston and predicting that its economy would fail because of the oil or whatever and people got pissed off about it even if they weren't from Houston. They didn't allow Houston bashing. Here on the other hand some users here seem like the type of people that would smile if they heard that Dallas was doing poorly.

I heard the the 635 expansion was built with a possibility of a subway parallel to the tollway.
