Victory Park is a master planned
development northwest of downtown
Dallas, Texas (USA) and north of
Spur 366 (Woodall Rodgers Freeway).
It is along Interstate 35E, part of
the Stemmons Corridor and Uptown.
Dallas' skyline contains several
buildings over 700 feet (210 m) in
height. Although some of Dallas'
architecture dates from the late
19th and early 20th centuries, most
of the notable architecture in the
city is from the modernist and
postmodernist eras. Iconic examples
of modernist architecture include
Reunion Tower, the JFK Memorial, I.
M. Pei's Dallas City Hall and Morton
H. Meyerson Symphony Center. Good
examples of postmodernist
skyscrapers are in Fountain Place,
Bank of America Plaza, Renaissance
Tower, JPMorgan Chase Tower, and
Comerica Bank Tower. Several smaller
structures are fashioned in the
Gothic Revival style, such as the
Kirby Building, and the neoclassical
style, as seen in the Davis and
Wilson Buildings. One architectural
"hotbed" in the city is a stretch of
historic houses along Swiss Avenue,
which contains all shades and
variants of architecture from
Victorian to neoclassical. The
Dallas Downtown Historic District
protects a cross-section of Dallas
commercial architecture from the
1880s to the 1940s.
Central Dallas is anchored by
Downtown, the center of the city and
the epicenter of urban revival,
along with Oak Lawn and Uptown,
areas characterized by dense retail,
restaurants, and nightlife. Downtown
Dallas has a variety of named
districts, including the West End
Historic District, the Arts
District, the Main Street District,
Farmers Market District, the City
Center business district, the
Convention Center District, and the
Reunion District. "Hot spots" north
of Downtown include Uptown, Victory
Park, Oak Lawn, Turtle Creek,
Cityplace and West Village.
