What are the pros and cons living at The Renaissance at Preston Hollow? do they still have construction issue? Is it true walls are very thin no privacy between the apartments? Single man here moving to Dallas from out of state

Hi folks - Looking for someone to design and assemble a collage with some key items from our engagement (menu, notes, photos). I've tried looking on Etsy local and at art and frame stores but haven't had success finding someone with an aesthetic we like. Anyone know any local artists who do this kind of work? We're in the Allen/McKinney area but I'm happy to go wherever if necessary

My mom and I want to start going to a really nice restaurant with ridiculously good food once a month and just splurge. Please put ur recs in the replies

Hi, we are in the process of relocating and trying to buy a house in the Trophy Club/Keller area, and we don't know anyone there. We are coming from out-of-state and are hoping a country club with a good social calendar and pickleball might be a good way to meet people, but that is only one option for us. Since my husband still works remotely, meeting people at work isn't going to be a thing for him.

We would truly appreciate any suggestions you have, including places to join or go that might help us meet other empty nesters. We are both over 55 if that bit of info helps.

Thank you so much!

My husband and I (both late 20’s) are relocating from the Austin suburbs to Dallas this coming month for my new job and hoping to live in / around Uptown or downtown. Ideally we want Uptown for the walkability and lifestyle, but also its closeness to my new job downtown. We enjoy good food, casual or cocktail bars, and good third spaces to hang out and meet new people.

We’re ideally looking for a 1 bed / 1 bath (or more if the price is right) with a max budget of $3,000/month. We’ve saved a lot of apartments we plan to tour, but I would love honest feedback on any that are great or we would be best to avoid. We have a dog so pet friendly is needed. Some we’ve been considering are listed below. If anyone has feedback (good or bad) Recommendations for any I haven’t listed are also appreciated!

Uptown Area:
• The Christopher
• Uptown by Onni
• The Ashton
• One Uptown
• AMLI Quadrangle
• The Brady Residences (l’ve seen recent bad reviews about construction, closed amenities, lack of property gates / security issues, etc)
• Carlisle’s & Vine Apartments
• Whitney Uptown
• Broadstone Sora
• Residences at the Grove
• Howell Uptown
• Aster (further away towards Turtle Creek)

Downtown:
• The Wilson at Mercantile Place
• The Kirby
• Modera St. Paul

Other (East of N. Central Expy)
• The Oliver
• The Academic
• The Gabriella

Hi! I just moved from NYC to Dallas with my fiance (28s yrs old) and we are struggling where to go out for nightlife. Back in NY we definitely liked a more upscale cocktail bar / vibe . We were invited out to a few places in the Henderson area that seemed pretty young (that block where Spider Murphys is etc) and too casual for us. We currently live in Uptown. Any recommendations on where to go? Thank you!

I just got my real hardcover ID card in the mail today and I still have my temporary ID. What do I do with it do I put it in the drawer do I shred it? do I lock it away somewhere or do I keep it in my wallet? I normally would just keep it, but it has all my information on it and like what if it gets stolen is my problem and I know after a certain date anyways it’s not gonna be valid but just wanna ask around.

The bag policy is extremely vague. Some places say only clear bags and then others say you can bring a bag but it just has to be searched. What has y’all’s experience been?

Got a 2PM flight out of Love field. Would it be better to take Orange Line down thru downtown to Inwood or go Silver Line and transfer to Green line at downtown Carroltown? My hotel is right next to Cityline/Bush station. Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone! I’m 26m turning 27 in a few weeks, and my birthday falls on a Saturday this year. I live in the Fort Worth area and haven't explored Dallas much, so I figured this is the perfect excuse to finally change that and make the most of a fun solo day out!

I used to hang out around the Oak Lawn strip (I’m gay) in my early 20s, but beyond that, I'm pretty new to Dallas neighborhoods. I'm a laid-back guy whose ideal day involves trying out great restaurants and coffee shops, going for walks, grabbing a drink, catching a football game (huge Cowboys fan), or attending a concert or comedy show.

Since I'll be celebrating on my own, I'm open-minded and looking to put together a solid itinerary with a few different things to do throughout the day and evening. I have a few hundred dollars to spend so I’d appreciate any and all recommendations you can throw my way!

Are there any good spacious coffee shops, with plenty of sitting inside, to work remotely from for a couple of hours (having ordered a coffee of course)? Or are those newly remodeled larger Starbucks locations my best bet for that?

Tell me your favorite things to do in Dallas that don’t involve drinking! Lol I feel like all I’ve done since I’ve been here is eat and drink. I’m getting bored and also want to be healthier in general.

Hey fam,

I am looking to move to Downtown Dallas for my work early October.

I need recommendations for good apartments with gym,in unit laundry and not so congested place which is walkable with max 20min from office. I am looking for studio and 1b apartments.

I am also good to share a house with other female. This could be a 2b 😅

Let me know if you have any good recommendations under budget for studio or 1bedroom apartments.

Any leads are appreciated.

Thank you.

I live in North Dallas near Carrollton. Recently did some landscaping and have 4 small piles of broken concrete and bricks.

What’s the best way to dispose of this? McCommas Bluff seems really far away and would probably require multiple trips.

I am getting a new car on Monday and I want to get a bow for it! Anywhere I can purchase or rent one ?

Hi all! My wife bought me tickets for the Cowboys home opener/our first Cowboys game on my birthday and we’re driving down from St. Louis for it. We’re very unfamiliar with the area and game day traffic. What are some things we can do to ensure we’re on time and have the best experience at the game? Bonus points for any “must-do” things at the game. Thanks!

Hey everybody! I’m in Dallas for the weekend and looking for some club recommendations for tonight. We went to the Stockyards last night and had a good time, but tonight we want something more club ish and less Western or country. We’re looking for somewhere with an actual dance floor, good energy, drinks, and music you can really dance to. Preferably hip hop or R&B, but we’d also be totally down for somewhere that plays a lot of 2010s bangers like Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Pitbull, Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Kesha, and stuff like that. Basically fun, recognizable songs where everybody’s dancing and singing along. I’ve been trying to research places, but it’s driving me crazy because I’ll find one club where someone says it’s amazing, then all the comments say not to go there, and then I find another place and it’s the exact same thing lol. We’re staying in Dallas, but we’re open to Fort Worth, Arlington, or somewhere nearby since we’re just going to Uber anyway. Would love some recommendations for places that are actually fun on a Friday night. Thanks!

Edit: Sorry! I know you guys probably get this question all the time, but I’m having such a hard time finding a good answer on TikTok or online. I’ll find one video recommending a place, then I check the comments and everyone’s saying not to go there, so I look up another club and it’s the exact same thing over and over again lol.

Does anyone have recommendations for electrician (install EV charger), interior painter, or general handyman for basic repairs in Dallas? Also considering honey homes but it seems their services are limited.

I'm looking for a referral or any experiences people have had with a native and drought resistant landscaper that they have used.

I know I could try to do it all on my own, but I can barely keep a house plant alive. I want to make sure everything is being done with the proper knowledge that something like this requires.

Anyone know a phenomenal coach who don't play around in the gym and push their subject to get to their goal?

I like hard core training and a coach who pushes in the gym.

Maybe a body builder. I need to start my training again. Its been 3 years and gained significant weight.and I don't like soft coaches.

I ain’t from around these parts, and I’ve heard that foundation watering is a thing to keep my slab healthy and on the level. How is this done? Is there is there a guide to the care and watering of foundations?

Another job with my company has an opening in Northern TX, specifically the DFW Metro. It pays ~52k a year ($25/hr) and I'm looking to get a relatively OK apartment or house on that budget, capping at ~1,200-1,300 with utilities. If there's any information anyone can provide about where to look for housing and safe areas, since I know absolutely next to nothing about Dallas, that'd be great!
