They sure sound like they are serious about this but why do I have doubts they can pull this off? Seems very ambitious.

Aside from all of the new stoplights that have been placed along Cesar Chavez I am starting to notice new stoplights appearing in various places downtown. Is this part of an overall downtown replacement strategy or just fixing some lights that are about to crash? It's likely some of both. Probably ...

Testing? How bright did it look? From the pic it looks subdued compared to the original day into night display that adorned that tower before.

This is an absolutely huge development and one that will almost fill the gap between Sherman and McKinney.

It's projects like this that will help keep us buzzing along even if the economy does slow down.

This is a ton of construction employment baked in for another decade.

^Heard yesterday it could be anywhere from 2-5 years but definitely not far from where they are now.

I hope this will spur growth among the sea of surface lots in the east part of Downtown. I feel like this area has great potential for some condo towers like in uptown. Just a dream though... With Pacific Plaza's construction wrapping soon, I'm betting we see those nearby lots built upon much soone...

I'm surprised they are only at 18, I would have thought they had something taller than that by now or tried to pull off a bigger mixed use tower.

The pride festival will stay at Fair Park most likely cause they want to grow that into a larger event on a bigger scale than it has been previously. The parade may still wander depending on other factors. The reality is Cedar Springs is too small for the crowd and size of participation. The securi...

Trying to drive down Henderson in front of 77 Degrees last night at 1:00AM was a sh!t show. And frankly I'm not bothered by the traffic; I'll just use alternative routes on the weekends. It does though reinforce the feeling I have that these people didn't know what they were doing or where they wer...

Wow, that's coming down fast.

Chime is busy hiring a lot of people right now. They had 900 show up for their job fair on August 10th and are busy filling positions. They should be open with about 500 employees by the end of September. The escalator in the atrium is being installed this week.

Amazing how fresh and clean it will look when complete.

Sounds like things are going to happen fast, this area of downtown won't be the same a year from now. Between Uber, DART and East Quarter, lots of change.

Can't read the article because it's locked, but found this headline interesting from the San Francisco Business Journal: https://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/news/2019/08/20/bay-area-exodus-uber-mckesson-dallas-texas-mck.html This story is local now.... https://www.bizjournals.com/dallas/news/2...

Wonder what we might see here now that Uber is in the hood?

Need to give this one some time to sink in. Uber is an Epic addition!

Dallas finally scores a big fish. Is that tower rendering official? Looks like you could land an uber air device up there.

I assume this doesn't have much to do with Dallas since Chicago was already it's second largest office outside of SF. Sounds like they are just moving to the old Post Office.

The rendering had caused me some confusion and I wondered the same thing but that line appears to be straight at the top.
