"Great place to go to college"

If you're interested in going to college or visiting one while you are in Arlington, check out The University of Texas at Arlington. They can help show you around the campus and all of the surrounding buildings. There are plenty or fun places to eat and shop at around the University.

"Plenty of activities to do here"

Take some time out of your busy day to visit West Abrams St. You can spend all day long at the Upstairs Gallery if you enjoy art. If you are interested in historical location, then go for a visit to The Historic Fielder House, which is home of the Arlington Historical Society. The street itself needs repairs and maybe a few more crosswalks for pedestrians but it is still a fun place to visit.

"Awesome place for a summer trip"

East Lamar Boulevard is a great place for friendly fun or a family vacation day. Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, previously known as Wet 'n Wild, is a great place to spend the day. It's a wonderful water theme park that everyone can enjoy. The street and surrounding areas are beautifully landscaped and clean. Plenty or parking spaces too!

"Baseball Fan? Visit Arlington, TX for some fun"

Here on Nolan Ryan Expressway you can have tons of fun at the Rangers Ballpark located next to the Ameriquest Field. They have more than enough parking for everyone as well as fun things to do during halftime. Just going for a walk around this place is great exercise. The whole street area is a great place for a job. Plenty of beautiful scenery.

"Entertaining Area For Day or Night"

Some interesting things to do here on East Pioneer Street. I love the Putt Putt Golf here for some family fun and entertainment. They have food available inside as well as an arcade for those of you who don't enjoy golf. Also for some nightlife, Pioneer st offers a few night clubs for some adult fun.

"Fantastic dining area"

If you are a fan of Asian food this is the place to be. The Kowloon, my personal favorite, is located on 100 W Pioneer St. It is a great family restaurant that serves a wide variety of Asian food. Also, on the weekends, it serves Dim Sum. You can pick tons of things to try and pay a fair price. The street also has a few great grocery stores for ethic food.

"Great place to shop"

Cooper street has several awesome restaurants including Hibachi Sushi, which is amazing by the way! Great place to go to on a date. The street itself needs some construction since the traffic can be really bad. People tend to run red lights often because the traffic lights take a long time to change.

"Wonderful Pleasant Neighborhood!"

All of the streets in this area are pretty quiet and relaxed. The roads are in great condition as is the landscape. Residents are friendly and active in their community, from group yard sales to council meetings. Near schools and other family related fun options. A great place for a daily jog because you'll always feel safe.

"Fast paced road"

The street could use some repairs here and there but is still fun to visit. It's home to the medical district and many restaurants. Always active even late at night. I probably wouldn't want to live in the apartments nearby, they look shabby. However, some of the residential areas behind them are quite nice.

"fun to visit!"

Camp Bowie is one of my favorite streets in Fort Worth. It's home to the Ridglea Theater for some entertainment as well as Harper's Bakery for some delicious petit fours or french horns. Tons of cute antique shops and several specialty stores give you lots to do while in town.

"Gorgeous place to live"

All of the houses here are unique and beautiful. The people are friendly and always outside with kids and pets. A nearby elementary school, Lily B. Clayton, is a great place for kids. I myself attended Lily B when I was a youngster. Parallel to 8th avenue but far enough away to avoid traffic and noise. You will always be just in reach of shops and restaurants.

"Fun road to drive down"

Forest Park Blvd is such a fun road to drive down. If you are coming off of Interstate 35, head towards downtown and enjoy the winding roads as a mini roller coaster. Beautiful scenery including the Trinity River is all around you. A good roadside to watch fireworks from! Could use a few repairs under the bridges where some small potholes have accumulated but nonetheless, a good drive. And of course the obvious-it leads you to heart of the city!

"Busy Busy Busy!"

Downtown Fort Worth is the place to be at night. Riddled with good cuisine and activities, surely a fun place for the family. Visit some of the quaint shops around these one way streets and you will be delighted! Main street is home to several art galleries and had plenty of parking for everyone. Look out for the cars when walking around, sometimes it's hard to see around corners!

"Fantastic place to eat!"

What a wonderful array of restaurants. No matter what your taste you will find something good here. Ranging from Thai to authentic Mexican (which is hard to find here), you'll always leave full and happy. Try King Tut's for some tasty Egyptian cuisine! If you work in one of the fine hospitals nearby parking is easy to find. Wonderful old timey light poles give the area a nostalgic feel.

"Fun place to visit."

University Drive is a fun place to spend the afternoon. It joins the zoo with the botanical gardens and a large array of shopping strips. All sorts of stores to please people from all walks of life. Also filled with different types of restaurants for your dining pleasure. Near Farrington Field for an afternoon game, or Barnes and Noble for some quiet book reading. I'm sure you'll enjoy spending your day here!

"Changing for the better."

West Berry Street is a wonderful place to visit. My high school is located here among the numerous fast food restaurants. TCU is also just off the street with many college related stores nearby. The city has been fixing up the road near the campus for some time now. It used to be just concrete and cracks. Now it's paved with beautiful red bricks in nice patterns and grassy areas in the medians. A pleasant site!

"Quiet place to live"

Ward Parkway is off of a busy street but far enough away to avoid the traffic noise. Very close to fun things such as the Fort Worth Zoo and a public pool. Great scenery and green atmosphere, a wonderful place for a drive. Most of the houses have been around for a long time and have very interesting designs. We lived in an English Tutor style with an enormous backyard.
