The 1990s saw a lot of construction of shops, restaurants, and residential buildings at Mockingbird Station, which kick started the transformation of this community. It is now the anchor of the northern area of Lower Greenville.

The weekend crowd flocks to Greenville Avenue for the city's latest and most fashionable restaurants. During the day the area has a busy lunch crowd who flood the patios and there is a tradition of shopping in the area before and after grabbing a beer and unique dish. The strip along Greenville Avenue actually has a totally different character at night than it does during the day.

In keeping with its effort to be one of the trendiest areas in Dallas, the area attracts a very hip and active crowd on weekend nights. The vibe literally seeps out of the various clubs and eating establishments as crowds wait and visit on the sidewalks and sitting areas. There is little entertainment other than the bars and restaurants, but this is more than enough for the many fans of Lower Greenville. But farther north along Greenville Avenue there is the Granada Theater, which features live music and events.

Residents of this neighborhood have the mornings largely for themselves and the area begins to come alive later in the day with brunches and dining, allowing for a more subdued atmosphere. There are a number of small places to enjoy your morning paper with a latte, and the usually fine weather will see a number of individuals walking and jogging throughout the morning.

Great walking neighborhood

Cameron M
Love this place for walking around doing some window shopping and eating some incredible food. Velvet Taco is awesome right off Henderson and Miller. So many great spots. Lots of old-style homes and seems very safe. Would even live in the area with kids. If you want to be close to downtown and not pay the crazy prices across the freeway, Lower Greenville is a great option.
