Parks for Downtown Dallas

"Former druggist E.C. “Doc” Harrell is widely considered to be the “Father of Lakewood,” and his pharmacy was long an anchor of the Lakewood shopping center that also houses the iconic Lakewood Theater. Since 1980, this pocket park has been a place for residents of and visitors to East Dallas to take a moment and reflect. On a crisp autumn evening, it’s a great outdoor spot to sit an enjoy a cup of coffee (or hot chocolate) and some after-dinner conversation."
