Oak Lawn Information
Oak Lawn is a neighborhood in Dallas, Texas (USA), defined in Dallas
City Ordinance 21859 as Planned Development District No. 193, the Oak Lawn
Special Purpose District. It is located immediately north of downtown. The
district is generally bounded by Woodall Rogers Freeway, Central Expressway, the
City of Highland Park, Inwood Road, and Harry Hines Boulevard.
Oak lawn is one of the wealthier parts of Dallas, with many professionals and
urban types living in upscale townhouses, condos, apartments, and duplexes.
Along the Uptown portion on McKinney Avenue and along Turtle Creek Boulevard,
there are many new high-rise condominiums and apartments. It is also a very
diverse neighborhood with well established areas of older, single family homes.
Oak Lawn is known for its good restaurants, as well as its many bars and clubs.
Running through the center of Oak Lawn from downtown to Love Field is Cedar
Springs Road.
It is known for being the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex's center for gay- and
lesbian-themed entertainment. The area boasts a host of Dallas' most renowned
gay bars and nightclubs, including Station 4, The Brick, Woody's, J.R.'s, Sue
Ellen's, and the Roundup, most of which are located along Cedar Springs Road.
Oak Lawn is contiguous with the Dallas Design District, and so much of the area
conveys a very "artsy" and upscale feeling. The area possesses gay-themed coffee
shops, bookstores, and restaurants, among other establishments.
