[edit] History
The area was known as Ola and Reinhardt prior to redevelopment as Casa Linda. Dallas annexed Reinhardt in 1948.[2]
The area was effectively built out by the early 1950s, by Carl Brown, though a few vacant lots remained until the early 1960s. The architectural styles of the homes vary, and some excellent examples of Spanish Colonial Revival Style architecture can be found in the area. The area is heavily treed, and most homes display well-kept and in some cases elaborate landscaping.
