Located just north of downtown, Uptown Dallas is a trendy, modern, busy place to live with plenty of entertainment, restaurants and great Uptown apartments. It is the center of the city's urban planning development and is one of the most pedestrian-friendly communities of Dallas. Any Uptown apartment you choose will be conveniently located near commercial businesses and other residential areas.

There are many different types of Uptown apartments, including town homes with generous courtyards, lofts with high ceilings and brownstones that incorporate architecture both new and old. Giant oak trees grow on roadsides and in medians, providing shade and a welcome avenue for walking.

The McKinney Avenue Trolley is a great place to start when you first move in to your Uptown apartment. It runs 365 days per year - rain, sleet and holidays - and will give you a first-hand look at all this neighborhood has to offer.

There are plenty of bars and clubs near your Uptown apartment, from the trendy Tribeca to the comfortable Idle Rich Pub. The McKinney Avenue Tavern is a great place to catch a drink with friends after work and Republic is the place to be in Dallas if you enjoy dancing and great music.

The Uptown Bar and Grille offers delicious southwestern cuisine and Truluck's provides Uptown apartment residents with tasty steak and seafood. You'll also find fast food restaurants, coffee shops, cafes and juice bars scattered throughout the community.

Visit the Legacy Trading Co. on McKinney if you're looking for home decor to spice up your new Uptown apartment, and don't forget the West Village Shopping Center if you just feel like walking and browsing some of the nicest independent boutiques in the city.
