Munger Place Historic District, Dallas, Historic district in Old East Dallas, United States

Munger Place Historic District is a residential neighborhood in Old East Dallas, Texas, bounded roughly by North Fitzhugh, Gaston, Henderson and Columbia avenues. It holds over 250 households and, according to the National Register listing, the largest collection of Prairie Style homes in the United States. The district lies south of Gaston Avenue; the northern and western portions belong to the Swiss Avenue Historic District.

Cotton gin manufacturer Robert S. Munger founded this district in 1905 on 300 acres with strict building requirements. It became the first deed-restricted neighborhood in Texas, establishing a new model for planned residential development.

Munger Place holds the largest collection of Prairie-style homes in the United States, over 250 households within the district. Each year the neighborhood stages a home tour and art festival that draws fans of historic architecture and independent artists. Gaston Avenue separates it from the Swiss Avenue Historic District, and the lots facing that street belong to neither district.

The district lies between North Fitzhugh, Gaston, Henderson and Columbia avenues; Gaston Avenue separates it from the Swiss Avenue Historic District, and lots on both sides of Gaston are in neither district. The national and city boundaries nearly coincide, so the Munger Place Ordinance defines the exact limits. The annual home tour and art festival is the time to see interiors.

Every home follows the original 1905 requirements that mandated two-story construction and front-facing orientation toward the street. These strict rules from over a century ago continue to shape the unified appearance of the entire neighborhood today.
