Wycliff Ave Lake is a small reservoir nestled in the Oak Lawn/Uptown area of Dallas. While modest in size, it is a quiet visual feature in a highly urbanized neighborhood, offering a brief but appreciated touch of nature.
It serves as a drainage and stormwater retention basin, helping manage runoff in this densely built area. Though there are no formal recreational facilities, the lake contributes to urban green space and provides habitat for birds and aquatic life. Its central location near public transportation routes makes it a visible and valuable part of Dallas’s water infrastructure.
