History of the Design District

Originally a humble floodplain, the city of Dallas unveiled its visionary spirit by boldly engineering levees and rerouting the mighty Trinity River away from Downtown. This move paved the way for what we now know as the extraordinary Design District.

In the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s, Trammell Crow recognized the untapped potential of this land, setting in motion the construction of multiple warehouses that would become the foundation for something truly extraordinary. Over time, the district’s magnetic charm drew the gaze of a passionate community of decorators, and purveyors of exquisite furniture, gifts, carpets, rugs, and wall coverings.

Fast forward to the present, and the Dallas Design District has blossomed into a dynamic hub of creativity, culture, and commerce. Its historic warehouses, once the backbone of the city’s industrial prowess, have been thoughtfully repurposed into chic showrooms, studios, and galleries, forging a unique blend of history and contemporary design. This bustling district has become a magnet for artists, designers, and enthusiasts alike, offering a vibrant mix of inspiration and opportunity and celebrating the remarkable journey from its industrial past to the thriving epicenter of art and design that it is today.
