It was on Swiss Avenue that some of Dallas' early wealthy residents spread out in large brick and stone mansions. Homes here span a variety of architectural styles, from Prairie to Art Deco and from Tudor to Spanish Renaissance. Today this elegant avenue is a wonderful place to take an afternoon drive or an evening stroll.

Looks much nicer than most houses in dallas.

We have an island city (surrounded by OKC limits) in OKC like this... I would be afraid to take a camera to Nichols Hills though... might get sicked by a security guard... Hopefully no one was suspicious of the man taking pictures of their houses. ;)

I think Dallas has a number of close-in neighborhoods that are prefectly lovely, this being one of them.

yes, the "streetcar" burbs in Dallas are pretty nice. Hoods like Oak Cliff and Greenway Parks are equally impressive.

Sweet pics. This is a fav.

Thanks, Texan. Great pictures, indeed.
You even got a nice shot of my house.

Hmmm, so I guess Swiss Avenue is in the Mountain Creek area of Dallas? :lol:

Okay, you caught me!!!
Mountain Creek it is (until I can afford a condo at the W)

Absolutely beautiful. I love the homes in Dallas.

I love the trees with the houses. :)

Without a doubt, gorgeous homes. Very impressive neighborhoods :okay:
