Allen is a Wonderful blend of the old ...

Eaton Court Salon, a converted home on McDermott.

 

Allen has made a commitment to keep their tree lined thoroughfares.  This is one of them.

The renovated Allen Train Station.  The line has been abandoned, but the old train station is still in use by the city for various functions.

This was the original main street in Allen and is called by the same name.  When McDermott was widened, 90 percent of the traffic went there.  McDermott is about two blocks over to the left.  That is where all the new fast food restaurants and large stores are located.  I have always been very fond of old Main Street.  It still has that "Mayberry" feeling to me.  The original buildings are slowly being renovated and Allen is doing their part to maintain the historical values of the area.

 

And the new ...

The New Allen Event Center, home of the Allen Americans Hockey Team! 

The Allen Civic Center and pavilion! 

The Allen fire administrative building, fire station, and training center.

The new library on Allen Street.

Celebration Station, one of Allen's large baseball parks.

 

One of the park lakes in Allen.  You will find Allen to be very "park friendly".  There are lots of soccer, baseball and football fields, along with walking and bike trails.

The Allen Skate and Bike park is a testament to Allen's big visions.  Click here to see more pictures of it.

Presbyterian Hospital of Allen continues the Presbyterian tradition of quality health care.  We had always used the "Presby" in Dallas until this new hospital came in.  This is where we go now.

Allen Drive is right in the heart of the town centre.  The new Allen Library is just down the street.
