Turtle Creek Drive
Turtle Creek Real Estate

We all know modern homes that have straight lines and sharp edges but they are tricky and ever contrived.

It personifies the Dallas of our imagination. It is rugged, incorporating the limestone outcropping and exhibiting the steel structural elements. It conveys energy from being built into the Katy Trail with the endless stream of walkers, bikers and runners. It reminds you of the arts when your private drive is directly across from the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Dallas Theatre Center. Residential density is displayed by the highrises in the distant view, and the primary views are pastoral – the trees, vast lawns and Turtle Creek.
