Apartments in Dallas Downtown Historic District: ranked picks

Downtown Dallas's historic district mixes restored century-old buildings with newer high-rises near the Farmers Market and Arts District, so the renting experience varies a lot from one address to the next. These rankings come from resident reviews weighed by our methodology, looking at how leasing teams and maintenance crews actually perform once you've signed the lease, not just the marketing photos.

Most of these buildings sit within walking distance of Deep Ellum, the Farmers Market, or the Arts District, so parking garages, elevator reliability, and package/security systems matter as much as finishes in a downtown high-rise. Several complexes here are historic conversions, which brings character but also older building systems that can mean slower fixes.
