The Highland Park and University Park, also known as the Park Cities, are both considered premiere neighborhoods in the Dallas area. Highland Park and University Park are known for its high quality of living, beautiful parks, award winning homes, closeness to downtown Dallas, excellent public schools, proximity to shopping centers, and Southern Methodist University. Highland Park and University Park homes for sale are highly sought after and range in styles. These neighborhoods have some of the most unusual and palatial homes in the area. Sometimes new homes are built on lots where homeowners seek out an older bungalow for sale, purchase the property, raze the home, and rebuild. Highland Park was laid out by Wilbur David Cook, the landscape architect who designed Beverly Hills, California.
