CHNA is a voluntary, non-partisan, non-profit organization incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas. We represent the dues paying members of the organization and work for the betterment of the entire Cochran Heights neighborhood.
One of the Dallas’ oldest communities, Cochran Heights offers the hard-to-find luxury of a walkable neighborhood of just over 300 homes, while being close to downtown.
Cochran Heights is home to a diverse mix of young professionals, first-time homeowners, long-term residents, townhomes, rentals, and everything in between. The neighborhood features a large concentration of architecturally-significant homes designed by Charles Dilbeck. We are close to a thriving nightlife scene featuring casual to upscale restaurants, neighborhood pubs, and unique shopping experiences. On the other side of Central Expressway is the Katy Trail bike trail and jogging path.
Green alley: Our biggest current project is turning an abandoned alley into a linear park.
