Beverly Drive

Let’s face it: there are only a handful of streets in Dallas that make people drop their jaw when they find out where you live: Strait Lane — I’ve decided to buy my next house on the tip top northernmost stretch of Strait just to get the reaction from people. Park Lane, to some extent. I lived on Park Lane for ten years and many times people asked me for an apartment number, as if! There is Lakeside Drive, Highland (hi Troy), and Euclid, and then there is the Grand Dame of Highland Park Streets: Beverly Drive. Who is Beverly Drive named after, anyhow?
