Peak's Addition

Peak's Addition Peak's Addition is an East Dallas neighborhood featuring historic homes with unique architecture built in the early 1900's.

Peak’s Suburban Addition Historic District is an eclectic collection of late 19th- and early 20th- century houses that reflects the suburban expansion of Dallas from its postbellum railroad boom to its subsequent emergence as the commercial and transportation center of North Texas. The district lies within the boundaries of the old city of East Dallas—a separate municipality incorporated between 1

882 and 1889— that developed around the railroad depot approximately two miles east of the Dallas County Courthouse. Comprising roughly 22 city blocks, it is one of the few relatively unaltered pockets of historic buildings remaining in Old East Dallas. The district was once part of a plantation settled by Mexican War veteran Jefferson Peak who became a pioneer in Dallas real estate development. In anticipation of suburban expansion in the far eastern sector of East Dallas, Jefferson Peak and his son, Junius, subdivided the family plantation into 16 blocks, portions of which were sold as Peak’s Suburban Addition beginning in 1879. Streets were named after the Peak children: Worth, Carroll, Junius, Victor and Flora. Junius Peak’s own house, built just before the turn of the century, still stands at 4409 Worth Street. Peak’s Suburban Addition is a microcosm of Dallas’ residential architecture from the 1890s through the 1930s, with styles ranging from late Queen Anne, Tudor Revival and Classical Revival to Mission Revival and Craftsman-influenced bungalows. The district also contains excellent examples of streetcar apartments from the 1920s and 30s.

🚨 FOR IMMEDIATE SHARING

Dallas friends and families, look closely at this graphic. This is not a drill.

The City Manager is floating a massive, devastating budget cut to our Dallas Park and Recreation Department's core services, and our quality of life is squarely on the chopping block.

These percentage reductions are pulled directly from today's budget briefing and public discussion. Please take a look at what could be taken away from us starting this October.

This is completely unacceptable. These are not invisible "efficiencies." These are direct hits to the public spaces our communities play, learn, and stay safe throughout the year. Our parks are the heart of our city, and we deserve better than this.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO RIGHT NOW👇

1️⃣ BE outraged
2️⃣ SHARE this post to get the word out
3️⃣ CONTACT your city council member however you can
4️⃣ TELL THEM do not gut our parks

Parks are for the people. They are always going to be worth fighting for ❤🌳

Join us on Saturday, May 16th starting at 8 AM for our HUGE Community Garage Sale! Neighbors will be clearing out garages, attics, closets, and probably a few questionable impulse purchases.
