The area was expanded northward to White Settlement Road in 1986 when Greenwood Memorial Park dedicated striking replicas of the Triumphal Quadriga or Horses of St Mark at its entrance. The area has experienced significant urban revitalization in recent years, especially along West 7th Street, which has been vital in connecting the Cultural District with Downtown. Among the largest recent developments have been Museum Place,^[9] West 7th,^[10] Montgomery Plaza, and So7.^[11] These combined developments, as well as several other smaller infill projects, have brought well over 1,000 new housing units in a mixed-use setting to create a true urban environment.

Six Points is expected to continue its renaissance, due to its proximity to Downtown and housing prices that are more affordable compared with other historic neighborhoods in the Fort Worth central core.^{[citation needed]}

In 2008, the city of Fort Worth declared the Near Southside as an Urban Design District, which requires new development to abide by specific zoning and aesthetic standards that will help to improve the walkability and mixed-use aspects of the neighborhood as it continues to revitalize.^[13] Numerous new living options such as historic lofts, townhomes, live+work units, and the rehabilitation of historic single-family homes continue to attract residents to the area.^[14]

Beasley Survey, and the eastern part, along the branch of the river, the 1876 James Howard Survey. The original approach to the Overton Park area consisted of unfinished roadways now South Hulen Street and Bellaire Drive South. The high land portion of Overton Park near Autumn Drive was originally a dairy farm and Ranch View Road still defines the neighborhood's current and adjacent connection that runs along the original Cass Edward's homestead. Land use restrictions filed on the Overton Park and Overton West additions stipulate that all houses must be brick or stone, and have at least a two-car garage attached to the house.
