NOLA Approves Sean Payton’s New Home in Vaquero, Lease-Purchase Underway

Share News:

What are we going to do if we start seeing a New Orleans Saints flag flying high in Westlake? Seems NOLA has given their blessings to the Payton family over their move to Vaquero, which is good because Payton told a reporter last week he’s signed a lease-purchase agreement on Mark Teixeira’s house. Don’t be surprised if we get some more NOLA transplants — Bob Warren at the Times-Picayune just wrote the most comprehensive article I’ve seen yet on the area.

“The town of Westlake appears out of nowhere, a tiny speck on the landscape between the glitz of Dallas and cattle-town history of Fort Worth. Here, the big box stores give way to large, shiny corporate office buildings and the rolling, oak-studded land behind them.

Tucked behind these office buildings, at the junction of Dove and Precinct Line Roads, hides the 525-acre Vaquero community into which New Orleans Saints Coach Sean Payton will soon move his family. Nestled securely behind a stone wall and guarded entrances, this ultra-exclusive enclave in the middle of tiny Westlake, recently named the most affluent town in the U.S., is for only the most financially accomplished.”

Bob’s staff came out and shot some nice photos of the area for this slide show.

But one of his sources confirmed that in Dallas, the “Old Money” still sits in Highland Park. —

“Highland Park is still where the old money in Dallas is,” Cvitanovic said. “But I think a lot of the new money is in Westlake.”
