LOCAL VIBES Locally owned businesses are the cornerstone of Texarkana. The city’s character is shaped by the people who own and operate these businesses every day. As members of the community, they understand their neighbors’ needs and meet them with a level of service that feels personal and familiar. Midtown is home to many of Texarkana’s standout local businesses, helping drive the economy while serving the community. Whether it’s medical spas, Rutland’s, Four States Furniture, or Fat Jack’s Oyster Bar and Grill, Midtown truly offers something for everyone. Midtown is where you will find the historic homes of Texarkana. Defined by craftsmanship and timeless style, these neighborhoods feature spacious lots and mature tree-lined streets. These homes offer a glimpse into Texarkana’s past, while thoughtful restorations have brought many of them back to life. Another highlight of Midtown is Spring Lake Park. Spanning 145 acres, the park centers around a spring-fed lake and includes open green space, playgrounds, walking trails, a disc golf course, and covered picnic areas. It’s the perfect place to spend a Texarkana weekend. The park is also home to Swanger Sports Complex, Dobson Field, and Bramlett Field, supporting local teams and community events year-round. On a hot summer day, the Rotary Splash Pad offers a fun way to cool off, and the Kylee Sullivan PetSafe Dog Park provides a safe, welcoming space for pets to play. Whether it’s fishing in the lake or enjoying Movies in the Park, Spring Lake Park remains one of Midtown’s favorite outdoor destinations.
