The square, the lake, and the old east side.

Garland is the metro's old east side — a historic downtown square, Firewheel Town Center, and Lake Ray Hubbard — and the only suburb on the DART Blue Line. One restaurant is profiled so far; more are coming.

Spring and fall — square festivals and lake weather; summer is hot but the lake is the point.

What a day costs

Around $80–$120 a day: the square and the lake are free; dinner is the main spend.
