Frank
Lloyd Wright referred to Turtle Creek as one of the most beautiful boulevards
in the country. This prestigious and verdant
Dallas area is home to many of the city's
most luxurious high-rises and private residences. Many new and established
buildings line the boulevard, offering impressive views of the parks and
fountains of Turtle Creek, as well as the famous downtown
Dallas skyline. The area also is home to the
world-famous Mansion on Turtle Creek hotel. The nearby
DallasTheaterCenter, designed by Wright,
is nestled on the hillside overlooking the creek along with many of the area’s
most architecturally interesting homes. Central to the area is Lee Park, which
is host to many of the city's most-significant social and civic events.
