Addison

Addison is a town north of Dallas composed of office buildings, shopping centers, and residential neighborhoods spread across the landscape. The mix of commercial and living spaces creates a developed urban environment.

The settlement started in 1846 when Preston Witt built a house near White Rock Creek and established a mill. This early industry formed the foundation for what would become a growing community.

The dining scene reflects culinary traditions brought by people from different backgrounds who have settled here. Restaurants and cafés line the streets and serve both visitors and workers throughout the day.

The area fills with workers and visitors during daytime hours because many companies operate here. Hotels and accommodations are scattered throughout, making stays convenient for business travelers.

A municipal airport here specializes in business aviation and handles corporate aircraft operations. This transportation link has shaped economic growth and remains central to the local economy.
