Thanks for the info.
Ironic and sad that this Trinity Forest Golf Course in the Great Trinity River Forest has so few trees.
As it develops in the future one can only hope that it is planted out with native plants only and certainly not with the invasive species that are already causing so much trouble.

The old Trumbull School?
We explored the abandoned remains before they took the building down.
Don't remember if I shot any photos.

Would you be thinking of what was originally the Dallas Hilton but is now the Indigo,
with Gus's Barbeque right close by across Harwood from the Old City Hall?

I remember hearing about this bridge when I was a kid but was told it was burnt down years before by hobos.
There was a house right off Fisher at what is now Huff Trail that us children thought of as haunted.
Have wondered since if that house didn't end up at Old City Park?

Today that looks like a bridge to nowhere.
Suppose development will follow, one of these days.

Thanksgiving Square is across Ervay from where the Medical Arts used to be.
As I understand it the area where Thanksgiving Square was built had smaller retail buildings.
Medical Arts was in the same block at the Republic Bank Building and Tower and was replaced by an 8 floor addition to the Republic Bank complex.
This happened in the 70s.

Mom once showed me a picture out of the newspaper and asked me if I knew who it was.
I said "Sure, that is the Sanger Harris man".
It was one of my cousins…

The Festival Theater! That was some crazy er, uh stuff!
Saw lots of midnight movies there and one punk rock concert, The Huns (from Austin).
After they tore it down got some art deco pieces from the interior as well as some large sections of the curtain.

Yup, pretty much the same road and that is why this thread made me think of the Old Dallas-Shreveport Road.
I did find this much...
Old Dallas-Shreveport Road - Van Zandt County Section

Debbie,
Metamorphosis did carry concert bootleg records at least back when they were over near the Quadrangle.
It was there that I discovered and fell in love with “recordings of indeterminate origin”.
One of my favorites is David Bowie Santa Monica 1972 and another great one that comes to mind was a recording of Joni Mitchell at a night club, recorded before her first record ever came out.

Just noticed that the little bent building that once housed Hargraves' Cafe is in the process of getting gutted and there is a sign out front that says “restaurant space available”.

Here is a map illustrating the routes in 1913.
For those that have yet to discover this, the University of Texas has a fantastic map collection.
