Texas Street, located between Broad Street and Spring Hill Avenue, is a residential and historic Mobile neighborhood with a grid of shaded blocks and a close-in, street-level feel. The character concentrates around the Broad Street corridor near Texas Street, where corner storefronts, service shops, and passing traffic set a steady, urban rhythm. Housing leans toward older cottages and small-frame homes with deep porches, mixed with modest infill and small multifamily buildings. Sidewalk walks track toward nearby civic and cultural anchors, including Mobile Museum of Art and Langan Park. Weekend energy often points to the Mobile Botanical Gardens’ trails and seasonal events. For a night out, the Saenger Theatre and the restaurants around Bienville Square frame a classic downtown loop.

Single-Family Residential Districts
These districts are composed of both developed and largely undeveloped areas. The developed areas contain mainly one-family dwellings and small open areas, usually subdivided, where residential development seems likely to occur; few two-family and multiple-family dwellings are found in these developed areas. It is anticipated that most of the large undeveloped areas will ultimately be developed for residential use. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the developed areas by prohibiting commercial activities and encouraging a suitable neighborhood environment for family life.
