Mall and Shopping Districts

Oak Cliff retailers have been meeting the shopping needs of residents since the 1880s when the city of Oak Cliff was first created.

Today, those shopping needs are being met through a variety of venues, ranging from a major regional shopping mall to the “mom and pop” shops that line many of the area’s streets.

Southwest Center Mall (located at Highway 67 and I-20 in south Oak Cliff) has four major anchor stores — Dillard’s, Foleys, Sears and Burlington Coat Factory. There are also a wide variety of other smaller retailers, offering everything from the latest in style to furniture to gifts and books.

Wynnewood shopping center dates back to the 1950s, and was one of the premier centers of its time when it opened. Today, it still serves the major shopping needs of the area.

The original downtown Oak Cliff — along Jefferson Boulevard — has been rejuvenated in recent years with an influx of new businesses that serve the growing number of nearby residents and businesses. There is rarely a vacant storefront on the boulevard, and many of the older buildings (including Jefferson Tower) in the area have undergone recent renovations to better serve clientele.

The Bishop Arts District, an historic commercial area located at Bishop Street and Seventh Avenue, has undergone major restorations in the last 15 years. Today, the area is an eclectic collection of unique restaurants, shops and businesses, and is fast becoming a destination for diners and shoppers from all parts of the Metroplex.
