Great thread! I really love a classic bungalow.

John is right - the Fairmount neighborhood in Fort Worth South, the district immediately south of downtown, is chock-full of classic bungalows from the teens and '20s. Formerly a poster-child of urban ruin thanks to suburban flight, Fairmount and the rest of Fort Worth South are really being reborn into a funky, cool urban village, and tons of the old bungalows have already been restored. It's a really cool neighborhood, especially for bungalow fans.
