This is All about American History
Pike Park
Established in 1914 as Summit Play Park, Pike Park was a gathering space for the working-class Little Mexico neighborhood. The park's Mission-style community center, which was built in 1915, still services the neighborhood. It has played host to countless festivities and commemorations over the years, including the annual Cinco de Mayo observance.

Dealey Plaza
The location of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Dealey Plaza was completed by the Works Progress Administration (WPA), and was named in honor of George Bannerman Dealey, an early publisher of The Dallas Morning News. In 2003 the Dallas City Council approved the reconstruction of the plaza to its exact appearance on November 22, 1963.
White Rock Lake
White Rock Lake, which celebrated its Centennial in 2011, is enjoyed by more than 1 million visitors a year. This urban oasis, once the main water source for the city of Dallas, is a beautiful setting to hike and bike, sail, kayak, bird watch, picnic, fish, and enjoy the outdoors. Land for the lake was purchased in 1910, the dam and spillway were completed in 1911, and the lake was filled three years later. Much of the unique architecture at White Rock Lake was due to the work of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) that began in 1935.
Fair Park
Designated a national historic landmark in 1986, Fair Park is a 277-acre venue containing one of the largest complexes of year-round cultural, entertainment, exhibit, and sports facilities in the US Southwest. The 30-structure Fair Park complex constitutes the largest intact concentration of 1930s-era exposition buildings and public art remaining in the United States. It is also recognized as one of the most significant sites in the world for Art Deco architecture. Please consider talking the Esplanade and Lagoon Walking Tours!
One of the oldest newspaper
The Dallas Herald weekly newspaper was founded. In 1856, the son of one of Dallas’ founding families was shot to death due to a gambling dispute. To enforce law and order, the area’s founders pursued articles of incorporation to become an official town.
Dallas received a town charter from the Texas legislature on Feb. 2, 1856. The first elected mayor was Dr. Samuel Pryor, who led the town government of six aldermen, a constable and a treasurer-recorder.
The History of Dallas..
Dallas history begins with John Neely Bryan, a settler from Tennessee who planted roots along the east bank of the Trinity River in November 1841. Bryan built a cabin on the land, in a spot near a natural ford that was at the intersection of two major Native American traces. As the best crossing point for miles in the region, Bryan’s land became a trading post as other settlers migrated into the region.
Bryan’s settlement was on land that was granted by the republic to the Texan Land and Emigration Company of St. Louis. After Bryan legalized his claim to the land and more settlers followed, in 1844, J.P. Dumas surveyed the land and laid out a town site. The site consisted of a half-mile square of blocks and streets.
The First Skycraper
Praetorian Building Dallas Texas
The Praetorian Building, also known as Stone Place Tower, was a 15-story, 58 m (190 ft) high-rise constructed in 1909 at Main Street and Stone Street in the Main Street District of downtown Dallas, Texas. It was regarded the first skyscraper in Texas and the first skyscraper in the Southwestern United States. It was among the first skyscrapers built in the entire Western United States, following the 1885 Lumber Exchange Building in Minneapolis, Minnesota and other taller towers in Minneapolis, San Francisco, Omaha, and Kansas City
