Mister X Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Nice photos of buildings, but most of the photos make uptown dallas look like a ghost town. I think I saw a total of about 9 people on the streets and sidewalks. Is uptown dallas an urban eden because it is only used by one man and one woman just like the garden of Eden in the bible. Still, nice photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UrbaNerd Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 In reference to no 38: Looks like we're not the only ones getting strip malls near downtown..lolNice pics, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxDave Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 (edited) The development in #38 has been strongly criticized in Dallas which even received coverage in the Dallas Morning News. It is located at a very high profile corner of McKinney and Pearl between downtown and uptown. The "strip center" appearance with predominant front parking has a lot of people lamenting the lost opportunity of this gateway site.

Even zoning can do little to prevent unimaginative developers from ruining your "urban village" with a strip center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
