History

Highland Park was founded in 1907 by John S. Armstrong, who developed the land with his sons-in-law Hugh Prather and Edgar Flippen and named it for its elevation overlooking downtown Dallas. The developers hired Wilbur David Cook, the landscape architect who had planned Beverly Hills, California, to lay out the community, and set aside twenty percent of the land for parks, a planning choice that still defines the town.

After Dallas declined to annex the area, Highland Park’s roughly 500 residents voted to incorporate as an independent town on November 29, 1913. In 1931, Highland Park Village opened, widely recognized as one of the first self-contained shopping centers of its kind in the United States. Today Highland Park is one of the most affluent municipalities in Texas, a town of about 8,500 residents covering roughly 2.2 square miles in Dallas County, entirely surrounded by the city of Dallas but governed as its own town.

ZIP Codes

Highland Park, TX is served primarily by ZIP code 75205, with edges running into 75219 and 75209.

75205 covers nearly all of Highland Park, the heart of the town, where the historic estates and architecturally significant homes along Beverly Drive, Lakeside Drive, and the streets around Dallas Country Club are concentrated. This is where almost all of the town’s carpentry work happens, and in homes of this age and caliber that means period-matched trim and millwork, custom cabinetry, and the careful restoration of original staircases and built-ins.

The town’s edges run into 75219 toward the south and 75209 toward the west, but the core of Highland Park sits within 75205. Innovations Carpentry provides its full range of carpentry, cabinetry, finish, stair, and millwork services throughout the town.

Local Landmarks

Highland Park Village is the town’s signature landmark, a Spanish Colonial Revival shopping center built in 1931 and recognized as one of the first planned shopping centers of its kind in the country, now home to luxury retail and a historic theater.

Lakeside Park, along Turtle Creek, is one of the town’s best-known green spaces, famous for its bronze teddy bear sculptures and its place in the town’s original park-rich plan.

Dallas Country Club, around which the community was originally laid out, anchors the heart of Highland Park.

Armstrong Parkway and the landscaped esplanades that run through the town reflect the parks-first design that has defined it from the start.

Innovations Carpentry works with homeowners across the estate blocks surrounding these Highland Park landmarks.

Why Work With Innovations Carpentry in Highland Park, TX

Highland Park homeowners care about both preserving the character of historic homes and building custom work at the highest level, and they expect work that holds up and looks intentional. We build to that standard, and we are comfortable matching original profiles and detailing so new work reads as part of the house. We are a workshop, not a sub-contractor pass-through or a big-box installer, and we run our projects like a workshop should: shop pre-fabrication, the same crew from quote to install, and a finish that matches the level of the home.
