Lower Greenville Dallas

When we see the huge flames roaring and hear the sirens of fire trucks we only hope that everyone is going to be okay and safe. A fire is a tragedy that can touch so many people in such a little time. It can destroy a large structure in just a few minutes, but it cannot destroy the faith of the people touched by it. As we all know or have heard a very important part of Dallas was destroyed by a fire on Tuesday March 2, 2010.

The fire roared through lower Greenville very quickly and destroyed four very well known businesses to that area. These Businesses included: Terilli's Restaurant & Bar, Mick's Pub, the Hurricane Grill and the Greenville Bar and Grill. Although we cannot replace the historical meaning that these restaurants had on lower Greenville, we can help the owners and people out who held these places closest to their heart get back in business!

Since the businesses that were affected by this fire are temporarily out of commission until they can rebuild, there are many employees finding themselves without jobs. With the economy, finding a job isn’t as easy as it seems, but Ziziki’s is offering a great opportunity to those employees affected by this tragedy. Ziziki’s at Travis Walk location is here to help out in every way possible by offering jobs to those who are looking for employment! Please see Bobby in the evenings if you are interested.

Not only is Ziziki’s helping out lower Greenville but so has the community. Everyone in the surrounding area has come together to help rebuild.  It is such an important part of Dallas’s attractions and history. There is plenty of help that is still needed to get these businesses back on their feet.


Donations are welcome to help out this awful tragedy. Also on Saturday March 13, 2010 The LGNA (Lower Greenville Neighborhood Association) will be selling t-shirts that were donated by them at the block party between Vanderbilt and Vickery. These T-shirts will be $10 dollars each and all of the proceeds will go to help this cause.

So when a tragedy strikes a part of our history we all have to come together to give them a boost to get back on their feet, because we all know if this was our business they would be doing everything they could to help us too.
