Newly revitalized city center
A group of concerned Tyler citizens banded together in the 1980s to revitalize a downtown in decline. Thanks to the efforts of the group known as Heart of Tyler, Downtown Tyler has experienced a rebirth, with new businesses moving to the area, restaurants and bars buzzing on nights and weekends, and new townhouses and apartment complexes are filling up with newcomers, many of whom have escaped Dallas in search of a small-town lifestyle. “A lot of folks know each other here, volunteer together, help each other out. It's a very tight-knit community," says John Landes, a managing partner with Fourth Point Real Estate and longtime Tyler resident. “Tyler is not a travel-through town. People seek it out to live and work here.”
Downtown Tyler is nestled in surrounded by mature trees and brick streets.

Downtown Tyler has many exciting restaurants to choose from
Residents in Downtown Tyler get to take full advantage of its proximity to many locally-owned restaurants. The most well-known is Rick's on the Square, a neighborhood staple since 1992 that serves American classics like steak, burgers and seafood. It offers a full bar and live music most nights of the week. The Foundry Coffee House serves coffee from local roaster Porch Culture and strives to provide the community with a place to hang out. For something a little stronger, many head to ETX Brewing Company, a family-owned microbrewery that has been serving the community since 2017 and offers local craft beer, burgers, sandwiches and salads. Shopping is limited in the neighborhood, so residents drive a few miles down Broadway Avenue to pick up groceries at Brookshires and essentials at Walmart and Target.
