Lower Greenville in three stops
01 Where it is
Lower Greenville runs along Greenville Avenue in East Dallas, south of Mockingbird Lane and west of Lakewood, roughly from Mercedes Avenue to Belmont Avenue. West of the avenue, Vickery Place runs to US 75 between Belmont and Goodwin, and Greenland Hills, the M Streets, continues north of it.
02 What is here
Greenville Avenue is the point: restaurants, bars, boutiques and live music, with the Granada Theater, a 1946 movie house turned music venue. The streets behind it are older neighborhoods: Vickery Place, Belmont Addition, Glencoe, Greenland Hills and Stonewall Terrace.
03 History
Before the North Central Expressway, Greenville Avenue was the main road from north Dallas into downtown; it still points there. Until the mid-1920s it was known as the Richardson Road, or Richardson Pike, and in the 1920s Mockingbird Lane became the northern edge of the city.

Questions about Lower Greenville
- 1
Why does Greenville Avenue have so many shops and restaurants?
It was the main route north out of Dallas, to Richardson, Plano and McKinney, until the North Central Expressway was built, so Lower Greenville grew early into a shopping and restaurant street. The corner of Greenville and Goodwin avenues has been a gathering spot since at least the 1930s.
- 2
What is the Granada Theater?
A 1946 movie house on Greenville Avenue that is now a music venue.

Which older neighborhoods are nearby?
Vickery Place, Belmont Addition, Glencoe, Greenland Hills and Stonewall Terrace.

What are the M Streets?
Greenland Hills, north of Vickery Place, between US 75 and Greenville Avenue. The nickname comes from McCommas and Monticello and the many side streets that start with M. Most of its houses date from the 1920s, in the Tudor style, and it is a city conservation district.
