Cityplace/Uptown — Local services in Dallas

Carolyn's Review........................ I have become very comfortable taking the train to where I need to go. It's relaxing, for the most part. The part that covers, the rest of "for the most part", isn't so comfortable though. However, in this life, we make our daily lives either a positive experience or the alternative. I am still learning each and every wonderful day that I am still here. That I can choose to see it any way I please. Therefore, I say to you with vigor! Be aware of your surroundings. Be mindful of others. Be confident in who you are and what your tolerance level is. Yet, be prepared! Be in a position to always protect yourself. But be cautious in your decision making. Sometimes all you need to do is look at the person or persons who are potentially invading your space on public transportation. Just silently let them know, "Not me, not here, not today!". They understand what point you are conveying. Trust me they do! If you are confident in knowing what you will do in order to protect yourself. They won't bother you. But equally as important, be kind to others! This is my most important advice I could share with you. This world needs more kindness. It truly does. I didn't know which way to go yesterday at CityPlace because of the construction. And what appeared to be a few homeless individuals, helped me so much. Bonus! They were so nice! It made my heart smile. They were being so nice and directed me exactly where to go. And I thought it was so kind of them as well. We are all in this life together! It takes a village. Oh! Guess what? None of us are getting outta here alive either. So be kind throughout your journey! Because we shall meet again on the other side. So pay attention to all the signs while in the tunnels. Be safe! ...

100% not a safe station. First of all, there will be no mobile signal once you are in this underground station. Second, lots of threatening beggars and homeless people roam here. I had a very bad experience here. One of the traveler was verbally attacking a police officer with a gun in her hand. When me and my spouse were waiting for the train, one homeless person started coming towards and asked us money. When we politely neglected, he started frightening us by shouting and following us in the same train and followed even after we got down in another station. Finally had to catch up another train without his notice to get away from him. All of this happened on the same day, which made me never choose DART again. Started using Lyft/Uber for travel even if it is...

Once you are underground at the platforms, there is no cell phone service, so you better know and you're route off by heart! There are so many escalators and stairs you need to fight up-and-down station. Unfortunately, 1/3 of the escalators were not working and were frozen at the time I visited, which was pretty disappointing. There was a guy blocking my path down the stairs when I was trying trying to commute away from the station, luckily I was able to go down the escalator portion to avoid him.

However, I really did enjoy the art on the walls and the tile patterns on the floors. There were trash cans too. My experience here wasn't too bad it just wasn't good as it was dotted with some minor inconveniences...
