This is a beautiful photo and we're actually interested in living in those townhomes below. It looks like might be University or Highland Park. Any guesses???

That's a development in Irving, just south of LBJ.

Pic was taken on W La Villita blvd, just north of Camino Lago.

Doesn't look like townhomes to me, just tight SFD.

Definitely NOT Highland Park or University Park - too far from downtown and way too cookie-cutter.

Looks like Las Colinas by the Campions Trail maybe?

Looks Irving to me but I think it might be photo-shopped because the skyline looks a lot smaller from there.... in my opinion.

The way the skyline is positioned....if it were not photoshopped - it would probably be off Canada Dr.

I live in La Villita and you are correct. That's an elevated shot so it would have to be from a high hill along 635 or it is photo shopped or they are using some type of telephoto lens

You do not have that clear of a view of downtown from the 635 area.

Exactly! It must be photo-shopped and that's what threw me off. I figured Highland and University Park wouldn't have that type of housing. Irving sounds right, but the closeness of the skyline deceived me. Thank yall for the info.

I'm from Oklahoma currently living in Columbus, OH and moving to the metroplex this July. We eventually want to live in Cedar Hill. I'm really trying to avoid the northern suburbs because I was told that most of them are full of "Yankee Transplants" and you don't get that "Texas feel". While the southern suburbs mid-cities and the HEB give you a little more Texas/Southern feel.

All I'm sayin is, I don't wanna move to the DFW and have my next door neighbors be from NY, NJ, OH, PA, MA & MI. That's what I have now here Columbus!

You're gonna get the most "Texas" feel out of the Metroplex in the Tarrant county suburbs.
