Live • Work • Play (Northeast Dallas / Lake Highlands) + Brief History
Live: Tree-lined pockets and established neighborhoods deliver strong value, especially around Lake Highlands and Forest Lane. Expect larger floorplans, dog-friendly courtyards, and quick access to groceries, trails, and local cafés.
Work: Commute options down US-75, I-635, and Skillman/Abrams connect you to Uptown, Midtown office nodes, Medical City, TI, and Richardson’s Telecom Corridor.
Play: White Rock Lake trails, Flag Pole Hill, TopGolf, Alamo Drafthouse, and an evolving local dining scene along Abrams/Skillman put weekend fun minutes away.
Brief History: The northeast sector grew rapidly with the post-war suburban boom and the 1970s/80s I-635 expansion. Proximity to Richardson’s tech corridor kept the area renewing its apartment stock—great news for second-chance renters thanks to diverse inventory and flexible screening across classic and renovated communities.
