Hotel Lawrence is literally a stone's throw away from Union Station. A distance that short would be safe to walk even in the shadiest neighborhood of any city. That being said, I have walked around downtown at night a couple of times and it is quite lively and quite safe, especially along Commerce and Main Streets. If you are going to Dallas anytime now, do go for a walk along Commerce Street.. there are holiday lights put up all along the street. Check out the photo below. Doesn't look unsafe, does it?Planning on going to Dallas on the train in a couple weeks. Staying at Hotel Lawrence. After reading about the shooting by the train station (or in it), it got me wondering on the safety of staying there. Any feedback?
That part of downtown is a tourist area so there are usually a lot of people around and often there are police within sight. As far as the shooting on the train, one could look at it as proof that there is a police presence in the vicinity of the station.Planning on going to Dallas on the train in a couple weeks.

While you can easily get dinner (supper) taken care of in the West End, be sure to try Cindi's New York Deli, which is right Kitty Korner to Union Station, for breakfast/lunch. The portions are massive and the prices not too bad. And you can get Baked Goodies to go for the train.Any really close reasonably priced restaurants for dinner?
And the relevance and significance of this is?Isn't Texas in general rather lax about firearms?
Yea, its really more about what kind of neighborhood is it than gun laws really.And the relevance and significance of this is?Isn't Texas in general rather lax about firearms?
It really has no bearing negatively on the issue.
Comparing apples to fruitcake here.....omni os over $200 per night....Lawrence about 75 bucks.Park West? Is that the same place as the new Omni hotel that I just saw. Unsafe? Which would be better to stay at? Hotel Lawrence or Omni?
