Heritage Neighborhood District

The Heritage District has been selected as the second project for the City of Irving’s Neighborhood Planning Initiative. The initiative is designed to:

  1. Identify community leaders who can assist with outreach, engagement and project implementation.
  2. Identify events, activities and community meetings that staff can organize or participate in to ensure all voices in the district are heard.
  3. Establish projects and future land use changes that will improve the quality of life of people who live, work and play in the district.


Boundaries


The Heritage District is bounded to the south by Shady Grove Road; to the west by MacArthur Boulevard, N. Sowers Road and O’Connor Road; to the east by Nursery Road and N. Britain Road; and to the north by Rock Island Road, W. Pioneer Drive and Union Bower Road.

This focus area is home to approximately 7,600 Irving residents, 285 Irving commercial properties, and encompasses:

  1. Approximately 1,036 acres
  2. 1,614 assorted single-family homes and duplexes
  3. 1,283 apartment units or townhomes


Project Status

Staff will attend community events within the Heritage District to raise awareness about upcoming meetings related to the development of the Neighborhood Plan.

During the events, staff will ask attendees to fill out a short survey to gather input and interest in participation in the planning process.
