GEMS OF HIGHLAND PARK

   
         
   

Highland Park is known across the nation for its exemplary public school system and safe environment, which is protected by its own public safety department. Block parties and outdoor gatherings are not uncommon in this friendly pocket of Dallas inhabited by approximately 8,500 people.

   
   

Located just three miles north of the city center, the prestigious area is the proud home of Southern Methodist University, Dallas Country Club, and Highland Park Village shopping center, a National Historic Landmark now reminiscent of Rodeo Drive.

Public green spaces are scattered amid stunning residences, giving the entire neighborhood an air of unrivaled peace and beauty. This Sunday, February 19, Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty draws your attention to several architectural masterpieces that truly embody the essence of Highland Park.
