This Oak Cliff neighborhood feels like Dallas’ new Uptown.
The Bishop Arts District's most prolific developer hired Julian Rodarte, a Dallas chef and restaurant owner, to be a guiding light for new development. Rodarte was once the CEO of Trinity Groves and brings a youthful energy to a Bishop Arts restaurant and hotel project ramping up from Exxir Capital.If you think you’re familiar with Dallas’ Bishop Arts District — its funky shops, pretty restaurants and fringe attitude — its most prolific developer is far from finished.
Today, Saturday afternoon in the Bishop Arts District looks like Uptown Dallas did 15 or 20 years ago. Bishop Avenue is often buzzing with couples shopping, families eating and bachelorette parties day-drinking. The neighborhood feels young, alive and diverse.Some neighbors who have lived here for generations are still a short distance away from the cranes and bulldozers. Some were displaced by development.
Tipsy Beach is a riff on Tipsy Elf, a Christmastime event in the Bishop Arts District. It brought so many new faces to Oak Cliff that it just made sense to replicate it during bikini season, the team said.At this summertime pop-up, three main bars near Casablanca will serve cocktails with party favors, like a little squeaky shark swimming in a blue cocktail. Customers may never know it, but the juices are fresh-squeezed. The team cores out pineapples and coconuts for drinks.
