Doesn't Houston have the Buffalo Bayou and Dallas the Trinity River?

So Dallas dosen't have a waterfront??
None of these so-called "waterfronts" are comparable to actual waterfronts in cities like Chicago, Milwaukee, Cleveland, San Antonio, Austin, Tempe, Portland, Seattle, SF, SD, NYC, Baltimore, Boston, etc.
Which is one reason Orlando is the worst city in Florida by far. I always questioned the wisdom of anyone who picked a place in Florida without a beach, seem to me that i the only asset that Florida has. When I went to Orlando I was told I must see Lake Eola, I remember standing on the shore of it and asking where it was. It was literally about an acre with the entire shoreline consisting of a condensed layer of bird poop. I still marvel at what they consider a lake down there.

Dallas has a waterfront so not sure what you're talking about.

That's not a waterfront. Most of the time, the trinity river is dry. Relatively, there's barely any water in that river due to the levee system. there are big plans to change that though.

The OP meantioned riverfronts, so I count it as one.

Ok and Dallas doesn't really have one. I mean, St. Louis is what you call a riverfront city. Same with New Orleans. Hell even Baton Rouge is one. You actually have to have water and build your city around using that water and on that water for you to have a waterfront. Dallas does not fit under that category. The trinity is either, dry, very shallow (most of the time), or deep because of alot of rain.
