@_homesbykonjanfit: The first shopping center ever built in America wasn’t in New York, California, or Miami. It was in Dallas, Tx in one of the wealthiest suburbs within North Texas, Highland Park. In 1931 Highland Park Village came into existence. Offering a row of stores that would face the parking lot to make shopping accommodations easier for shoppers. That one idea of having store fronts facing the streets would be the blueprint for every shopping mall in the entire United States. Making it a pioneer for retail stores front. While that was amazing, the city that created it had a dark past of racism and exclusion. This is the historical context of Highland Park Village. #fyp #highlandpark #dallas #historytok #texas

HP is not suburban. It’s in the heart of Dallas. It’s just its own township.

Even in the 80’s and 90’s there was a rumor that if you were black or Mexican (Like Me) they would attack you if you went there.

Market Square in Lake Forest, Illinois, built in 1916, is considered the first master planned shopping center in the United States.

This is not true. The Country Club Plaza in Kansas City was the first. It opened in 1923.
