East Dallas Stole New Yorker’s Heart by Lisa McKnight
Keith Becker has been officing at 4807 Gaston for over 5 years now. A graduate of Syracuse Western New England Law School and now a family law specialist, Becker loves the high ceilings and hardwood floors of the 1909 house converted law office he shares with Lisa McKnight. The house was unkempt and “eccentrically decorated” when purchased in 2003. “There was a lawn mower in the dining room and several toilets in the back yard” said Becker. But it was a bargain. This, coupled with the commercial zoning and his desire to own his office prompted the purchase. “I love all of the locally owned establishments” said Becker. He frequents Jimmy’s, Alligator, Divino’s and the Brake Stop to name a few. Not once has he regretted moving his office to Peak’s Addition. “It literally takes me five minutes to go to the Court House. I love it here.”
