New Art Fence in University Crossing

We are proud to introduce more public art into the University Crossing Public Improvement District! The newest art fence designed by acclaimed artist Michael Van Enter and his team has been added to the foot of the Mockingbird Pedestrian Bridge on the south side of Mockingbird Lane.

The University Crossing PID Board voted to add the new bridge to enhance the experience along the University Crossing Trail and work to combat vandalism on the bridge facade.

Enjoy your walk or ride along the trail and take a look at the new art!

Bach in the Subways at Mockingbird Station

Mockingbird Station® Presents Annual Bach in the Subways Concert

Bach in the Subways celebrates classical music with a live concert open to the public


Bach is back! Mockingbird Station® welcomes Bach in the Subways, a derivative of “Music on Mockingbird,” for a special concert featuring music from famous musician Johann Sebastian Bach in collaboration with WRR Classical 101, Friends of WRR,   KERA, University Crossing, and the Greater Dallas Youth Orchestra, a diverse organization of highly talented young musicians from over 50 communities in the Metroplex.  In celebration of Bach’s 339th birthday, Greater Dallas Youth Orchestra will join thousands of musicians across the world for the annual tradition of performing Bach in public – subways, parks, cafés, zoos, and other public spaces – while declining donations.

Patrons of Mockingbird Station® are invited to enjoy Bach in the Subways on Thursday, March 21, 2024, at 7:00 pm. The public is invited to attend this free performance at Mockingbird Station, 5307 E. Mockingbird Ln., Dallas, TX 75206. Some of Bach’s most beloved chamber music works will be included in the program. Seating is limited, so guests are encouraged to bring along their own chairs or blankets. Complimentary sub sandwiches will be provided by New York Sub in Highland Park.

“Our mission is to bring Bach to as many people around the world as possible,” says Dale Henderson, the New York City-based cellist who founded Bach in the Subways Day in 2010 and leads the movement today. "My long-term vision for Bach in the Subways," Henderson says, "is to bring a renaissance of interest and inspiration and excitement about classical music to, ideally, the globe."  This year’s celebration will be large and global, transcending cultural boundaries and engaging musicians of all talent levels and instruments.

ABOUT BACH IN THE SUBWAYS

Bach in the Subways is a global initiative centered around the birthday of classical composer J.S. Bach each March. The purpose is to share his music in public spaces, performed live, free of charge. Today, more than 150 cities around the world take part, including Dallas. Though the idea originated with a single cellist performing in a New York City subway, performances can take place wherever there are people to hear the music – in malls, on the street, in churches, coffee shops, airports, and more. The most important idea behind Bach in the Subways has always been to bring live Bach, and by extension classical music, to as many people as possible

For over 40 years, Friends of WRR has collaborated with WRR101 and the City of Dallas to ensure that WRR remains a city-owned and independent arts asset and that classical music is a continuous part of the North Texas community.  The organization supports WRR, the voice of classical music and the arts in North Texas, by advocating to keep them city-owned and independent, promoting classical music education, and partnering with arts organizations to increase awareness of all arts programs.

The University Crossing Public Improvement District Board, Expanded Neighborhood Patrol (ENP), UCPID Security Committee and Homeless Outreach team are hard at work identifying and building relationships with our homeless neighbors. Since last year, we have worked closely with our outreach team to build relationships with homeless trying to find shelter or those panhandling in the area. We've been able to make connections with several homeless neighbors and assist them with services - setting them up with a more desirable long-term solution.

In addition, we've worked to develop education materials for the property owners, neighbors and students who are in the PID community every day. You can access these materials at www.universitycrossing.com.

Resources for Managing Panhandlers in University Crossing

Individuals panhandle for a variety of reasons, but most of those who have engaged with the UCPID street outreach staff and the City of Dallas End Panhandling Now have expressed they are fulfilling basic needs, such as food or shelter.

Between 70-80% of the individuals engaged by UCPID street outreach are considered homeless, however many do not consider themselves to be homeless.

An example of this might be an individual who panhandles daily to pay for a motel room and food for the evening. Others might be living in encampments near the areas where they solicit. Among the most common referrals made by staff is to local shelters.

Additionally, many clients have shared that their mental health prevents them from getting and keeping traditional employment, or prevents them from seeking social services from shelters.

Panhandlers report earning anywhere from $20-$300 daily. The average age of individuals engaged by University Crossing street outreach is 46 years old.

In an article from The Dallas Morning News in February 2021, the former Office of Homeless Solutions Interim Director, Kevin Odom, advised against giving to panhandlers directly.

Odom stated, “multiple persons at the intersection are permanent residents of motels in the area, and choose that area to remain due to the profitability that panhandling provides. I would offer the advice that the most effective way for panhandling to cease in an area is for giving directly to persons to cease."

Odom continued, “I would also recommend that staff and the public not collect and provide on-site donations to the persons camped in this location as donations, though well-intended, can continue to discourage persons from accepting placement in a shelter or other housing options."

He encouraged members of the community to instead donate directly to service providers who can provide long-term assistance with their homeless recovery.

The solution to ending panhandling is simple.

If you want to end panhandling, stop directly giving money to panhandlers.

Giving to panhandlers:

  1. Puts them physically at risk as they maneuver through traffic

  2. Discourages people from accessing homeless recovery resources to change their long term situation

  3. Funds may be used to fund addiction

  4. May put the giver in danger if the panhandler becomes aggressive

Alternatives to giving money directly:

  1. Provide food, water, hygiene kits, and other basic essentials

  2. Provide employment opportunities and job skills training while emphasizing the importance of doing work

  3. Provide shelter

  4. Give to organizations that provide homeless recovery resources

We’ve made it! The holidays are upon us!

We want to be sure that you’re being safe during the hustle and bustle of the holidays while you shop in the University Crossing neighborhood. That’s why our security team has prepared a list of safety tips to help you get to and fro safely. Remember! IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING!

Take care and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

General safety tips when you’re out and about!

  • Keep all car doors locked and windows closed while in or out of your car. Set your alarm or use an anti-theft device

  • If you must shop at night, park in a well-lighted area

  • Avoid parking next to vans, trucks with camper shells, or cars with tinted windows

  • Park as close as you can to your destination and take notice of where you parked

  • Never leave your car unoccupied with the motor running or with children inside

  • Do not leave packages or valuables on the seat of your car. This creates a temptation for thieves. If you must leave something in the car, lock it in the trunk or put it out of sight

  • Be sure to locate your keys prior to going to your car

  • Shop with a friend or relative. There is added security in numbers

  • Keep a secure hold on your purse, handbag and parcels. Do not put them down or on top of the car in order to open the door

  • When approaching or leaving your vehicle, be aware of your surroundings

  • Do not approach your car alone if there are suspicious people in the area

Tips To Thwart Porch Pirates

  • Ship to an Amazon locker

  • Ship to a FedEx or UPS office

  • Send the package to your work address if your business allows

  • Send to a family member or friend who will be at home when the package is delivered

  • Install an outdoor security camera

  • Keep your property well lit

  • Request notifications on your deliveries

  • Set up a vacation hold if you plan on traveling during the holidays so gifts won’t be left on the doorstep

  • Never accept a surprise delivery where a payment is required, and never give out personal information when receiving a delivery that you purchased as it may be a scam

 Several ways to report a crime

  • Dial 9-1-1 for emergencies

  • Utilize the Dallas Online Reporting System to file a report online

  • Visit your local police substation to make a report in person

  • Utilize the iWatch app to anonymously provide information about criminal behavior
