It is bounded by Northwest Highway (Loop 12) and the Preston Hollow neighborhood on the north, Inwood Road and the Devonshire neighborhood on the east, Lovers Lane and the Elm Thicket/North Park neighborhood on the south, and Midway Road, Bluebonnett Road, Bluff View Blvd., and the Shorecrest and Cochran's Chapel neighborhoods on the west. A subsection of Bluffview is Briarwood, which is bounded by Lovers Lane on the south, Inwood Road to the east, Horseshoe Trail & Briarwood Place to the north and Elsby Avenue on the west. The neighborhood was established in the late 1930s by the Elsby family on the site of the former Bluffview Dairy. The Briarwood Crime Watch & Neighborhood Association is a volunteer-run organization primarily focused on safety and crime prevention, as well as sponsoring community activities.[1] GeographyBluffview is so named for its relatively hilly topography—it lies along cliffs overlooking Bachman Branch and its tributaries. Some of the cliffs the neighborhood is built on rise 50 feet (15 m) over the water below.[2] HistoryThe neighborhood was originally developed as Bluff View Estates by developer J.P. Stephenson. In 1924, he bought a 215 acres (0.9 km²) dairy farm along Bachman Branch and developed the land into 1 acre (4,046.9 m²) lots. The area was annexed by Dallas in March of 1943.[3] A portion of Bluffview in the northeast corner was originally planned to be within the boundaries of the town (now neighborhood) of Preston Hollow. While Bluffview was annexed by Dallas in March 1943, it was not until 1945 that Preston Hollow was annexed.[4] DemographicsBluffview is included in a census tract that also includes the Shorecrest and Cochran's Chapel neighborhoods.[5]
