Top O’ Hill Terrace Collaborative Historical Preservation Project

The Department of History and Geography and UTA Libraries, in collaboration with the City of Arlington and Arlington Baptist University are assisting in the preservation of Top O’Hill Terrace and its history. This public service partnership will produce an archival history Top O’ Hill Terrace, from its beginnings as a women’s tearoom, to its time operating as an illegal casino frequented by celebrities and criminals alike, and finally its conversion into a seminary school, with the hilltop now home to Arlington Baptist University.
