Heritage tourism is the term used to describe a system that links historic
sites to the tourism industry. The National Trust for Historic
Preservation leads the nation in its promotion of heritage sites, some
that it maintains and others that it promotes with its associates. The
Texas Historical Commission has also initiated a series of heritage trails
to support local communities across the state. Heritage tourism is more
than opening up a crumbling old house, showing off dusty antiques and
listening to well-scripted tour guides. Heritage tourism is vibrant,
interactive, and simply good business. A heritage tourism program might
set the stage for offering a more complete visit of the city's historic
properties by tourists, and certainly would add money to the bottom line
for some of our local businesses.
.
Wilson House
.
Many of you may not know that we welcome hundreds of visitors to the
Wilson House each year (see photo above right) as tourists and tour groups
look for sites where Dallas residents historically lived. The Wilson
House, an 1899 Victorian, is not a house museum, but it is a relatively
intact site that allows visitors to see how people lived in the early 20th
century. Our tours tell about the development of the Wilson Block and the
Intown Living Center, not necessarily the location of Henrietta Wilson's
sewing box. We want to make our visitors aware of our history and
architecture.
.
You may not know that a handful of other houses in the city are also open
to the public for rentals and, occasionally, for tours. The Turner House
in the Winnetka Heights Historic District (below left) is one of these and
is operated by the Oak Cliff Fine Arts Society. This 1912
Prairie-influenced house is one of the earliest in the neighborhood. It is
open for events and rentals.
.
The Dallas Woman's Forum on Ross (below center) is another historic house
open for public use and rentals. This 1906 house is among the city's
oldest residences, and one of the few original houses remaining along Ross
Avenue. The work of Sanguinett & Staats of Fort Worth with C.D. Hill, it
is virtually intact from its original construction.

2010 Endangered Nominations
.
Preservation Dallas accepting nominations for
Most Endangered Historic Places
.
Early Tuesday morning, March 2, Dallas lost one of its best examples of a
1920s commercial strip that included Terillis, The Hurricane Grill, Micks
Bar, and Greenville Bar & Grill. The fire ravaged a neighborhood landmark
that will not be easily replaced. We are reminded by this loss of how
historic places matter.
.
For nearly forty years, Preservation Dallas has recognized and sought to
preserve Dallas history. Many of our greatest landmarks have, at some
point, been endangered from neglect or abandonment. Buildings like Old
Parkland Hospital, the West End historic district, residences on Swiss
Avenue, the Womens Museum at Fair Park, and St. Josephs Catholic Church
and Academy are STANDING examples of how old buildings can breathe new
life.
