VISION

One Midtown District – with Diverse, Dynamic, Definitive Neighborhoods

Conveniently and centrally located in Midtown Dallas, The Midtown Improvement District represents more than 600 acres encompassing The Shops at Park Lane, Midtown Park, Vickery Midtown and commercial Upper Greenville boroughs just east of North Central Expressway from Royal Lane to the north, Abrams to the east and Northwest Highway to the south.

Major continual improvements are underway that are the result of a public/private partnership and collaborative working together to efficiently connect the District’s private property owners’ resources with public funding from City of Dallas and other public entities.
