Second Avenue

The South Dallas Fair Park Area Plan Task Force is advocating for change in the community, including addressing displacement pressures, preserving the area's cultural identity, and promoting equitable outcomes, with the City Council set to vote on the plan on May 28.

The South Dallas Fair Park Area Plan identifies 2nd Avenue as a key focus area to transform into a walkable corridor featuring retail, restaurants, office space, and housing, with recommendations to change the zoning and create a mixed-use subdistrict to encourage development close to the street and remove parking minimums.
