Dallas
Just east of downtown Dallas, Deep Ellum grew from a freedmen's town into a district of factories, shops and music. Walk from the light rail station past the temple a Black architect built for his community, the plant where Ford assembled Model Ts, the corner where Leadbelly and Blind Lemon Jefferson played, the street that brought live music back in the 1980s, and the cotton gin works whose water tower still stands. About 2 km, all outdoors.
