A Short History of Deep Ellum
Founded in the late 1800s east of Downtown, Deep Ellum (“Deep Elm,” said fast) grew into a powerhouse of jazz and blues by the 1920s–30s, hosting icons like Blind Lemon Jefferson. The area’s warehouse roots and independent spirit nurtured waves of creativity—from early manufacturing and rail commerce to a modern era of street art, live music, and indie businesses. Today, it’s one of Dallas’ most recognizable cultural districts, blending historic brick facades with new residential and retail energy.

-
Parking plan: Decide on assigned vs. garage before applying.
