Daily essentials are found at the H-E-B on North Shepherd Drive, while the M-K-T mixed-use development provides direct access to the Lawrence Park hike-and-bike trail.

How does the "Dry Zone" affect Greater Heights dining?

For decades, a portion of the Heights was "dry," prohibiting the sale of alcohol. While these laws were relaxed in recent years to allow beer and wine sales in grocery stores and restaurants, the legacy has shaped the commercial landscape. The area is now famous for its "ice houses" and BYOB culture, though a booming restaurant scene along Shepherd, Durham, and 19th Street now offers full service. This unique history gives the neighborhood a distinct, small-town commercial feel.
