West End Historic District
West End Historic District, Historic district in Downtown Dallas, US
Red brick buildings from the late 1800s line the streets of this commercial area, showcasing Chicago School architectural style at 129 meters elevation.
The district began as Dallas's first factory and warehouse zone in the 1920s before transforming into a major tourist destination during the 1980s.
The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza documents President John F. Kennedy's assassination through exhibits, photographs, and historical artifacts.
The district contains multiple dining establishments, including Ellen's for Southern cuisine, RJ Mexican Cuisine, and Y.O. Ranch Steakhouse for Texas specialties.
Former industrial buildings now house technology companies, creating a contrast between 19th-century architecture and modern business operations.
