Dallas Fort Worth Urban Forum

'Sugar Factory' will open in the Lower Mckinney/Victory Park area later this year (summer or later), replacing a recently closed restaurant. It'll be their first location in TX, not really sure what to make of the concept. It seems to be a fairly high profile kind of place. I know it had been menti...

Just another angle of the building from about a week ago:

Seems like some mixed-use is looking to go in called Pearl Lofts. The spot seems to be where that NTFB (or DFM) administration office building is, though. Across from The Shed and the Harvest Lofts.

I've only recently noticed the boxing-type fitness center trend, if that is what it is. I've seen 3 different coming soon locations for the Mayweather-branded one and now this one. Has it been going on for awhile now? I'm going guess it has just been under my radar.

^^ Thanks for the photo.

Here's another recent look:

I was already a bit annoyed by the Salt Bae over-the-top salted-forearm drama InstaTokTwitBook guy that even Ramsey was like what (huh, donut?) and then I saw a TikTok video last week about this new place in Dallas by a restaurant guest because it apparently fell into my feed algorithm. And, I reall...

Meanwhile, here's an LOL while it lasts online assuming they eventually realize their mistake:

Dallas-based De La Vega Development is nearing completion of Phase I of The Central. . .

Is it this location?: https://shopcompanies.com/properties/victory-pad-site Across from MODA? It lies just outside the KWP-Arts Distr. PID and even further outside the Uptown PID. Not a Harwood property as far as I know. Curiously, the former PID goes around Harwood Int'l District almost completely ...

You all make this whole forum work still. And, thank you forever for helping keep the place plug along for 20 years now. That's a pretty damn long time. You all are the absolute best there is out there. History: 1997: Started as a goofy website on the old GeoCities platform for free while I lived in...

Joined up and looks good. Will be great for side-bars and other reasons already mentioned earlier. Plus other odds and ends here and there. Not to mention forum meets virtually by text/voice/video. . .

It is The Chloe, apparently. Earlier when I read this, I had to say it out loud and wonder - and both my work-from-home wifey and my school-from-home younger daughter stopped what they were doing and joined in wondering what the "hay-ell". . . https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/TABS/Search/Project...

I get the feeling that DFW's 55+ build trends are a little more of a natural evolution and dotted across the region vice the Sun City, AZ purpose-built 55+ mini-city or other places not so master-planned yet heavily dotted throughout Maricopa County or South Florida.

By the way, if anyone here ever goes to the 7-Eleven at Elm & Good Latimer in the evenings, please give my young-old daughter a warm DFWU Forum hello. She's been there for over a year and loves it.

^ Thanks Hannibal.

Does Mark Cuban (or associated) own the next building over (with the Mavericks logo on the roof and other Mavs stuff on the exterior walls) and the parking lot? Just curious. Seems like he/"they" do.

I'm not sure how on point I am as pharmaceutical stuff isn't really up my alley, but, it seems like a fill and finish facility for pharmaceuticals is the end of stream manufacturing or lab facility before distribution to wherever. I guess earlier in the stream would be where the chemicals and other ...

CitySquare, a local non-profit social service organization, is in the works to start its second housing project. The Lomax housing project will be located across from CitySquare's Opportunity Center at Malcolm X/Louise. It will be on a site that was previously an almost-century-old Magnolia gas sta...

I had the pleasure of getting a speed-run tour (45 minutes actually, but, felt fast) of the lower floors and the 9th including the outside decks. Got to learn what office space Downtown Dallas, Inc. is supposed to move to (totally forget what floor that was, maybe 2, 4, or, 5?) and the 2 open restau...

Well, hey, sound interesting: https://dallas.culturemap.com/news/trav ... town-95000

For $95,000, you can rent this entire downtown Dallas hotel all for yourself

Seems like these ailing big enclosed malls would be a great springboard for a hotel resort activity destination like Gaylord or Great Wolf. You know, that's a pretty genius idea. There isn't really anything like that close by (to Plano/Frisco). Even though Great Wolf and Gaylord aren't THAT far, I ...

It's interesting how big this site will be if QT has the restaurant plot too. Plus, it'll have both Lemmon Espressoways as entrances probably. This place will likely do rather well for myriad reasons. It's not remotely an exciting urban infill or final-use development for sure - obviously. The exist...

I've been wondering which route they might go with the copper shine (I guess assuming it's copper) : Clean it regularly. Let it do it's natural thing over many, many years. Or, take it chemically to a full patina real fast. If I remember correctly, many moons ago the top roof of Momentum Place (Come...

The trifecta off Miguel Martinez Way (Alamo St) should be just dandy for sure, it works and I hope it always does. I just hope Miriam's survives, even though it's quite different than Mi Cocina, there might not be that natural draw to cross the street because Savor was Savor (or Relish) and Miriam's...

I'm sure Miriam across the street will be thrilled.

Maybe not something most customers would notice, but, a block-ish away over at Fearing's - they procure the same beef from "A Bar N Ranch" (http://abarnranch.com/) that Haywire says they also use.

I still wonder about what might replace the old Perry's location at 2000 McKinney.

Thanks for all the photos above, kingpin. Looks like a furniture store is at least planning to go in at the 4400 block of McKinney. New build construction later this year with an opening the following Spring perhaps. I'll go ahead and make a reasonable guess the file might mean Blu Dot (vice Blue) a...

Just a follow-up. The Peabody Hotel project still hasn't started.

It's that new one nearby in the East Quarter and also adjacent to the future Harwood Park: https://www.300pearl.com/

While I don't think it's very likely, I do contemplate if they have any intention for applying thin brick veneer tiles around the windows. . .

It is definitely disappointing. I suppose maybe there was no hope for the brick after removing paint. I would've been fine with just repainting the brick after all the remodeling was complete than going this route. Also, there could've been this from a design comp awhile back: http://www.bokapowell....

It's pretty darn close, haha: https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/TABS/Search/ ... 2019017302

The Link at Uptown website states 292KSF rentable office space.

It is very close to 2525 McKinnon, and, a good point. The gap is strikingly close as viewed from Harwood St. I walked through it during the early days of construction.

From quite some time ago:

Yeah, I'm sure some people would definitely be interested. I'd do it.

There is a right of way permit for crane services to start on Ross between Harwood & Olive on the 16th Jan all day going into early hours of next day. Closure is for all lanes of Ross in this section. Seems like a very good chance that is the day to start seeing action for a tower crane to go u...

I totally forgot about that. I had noticed a Coming Fall 2020 (or something like that) sign once when I was walking over to Cafe Momentum. I believe there is also an interior access point for Mosaic residents. Looks pretty good.

Yes, the Census Bureau ACS has always segregated the Denton-Lewisville defined urbanized area away from DFWA as well. And, that even includes part of Dallas County. . .

Seems a reasonably decent place to plant this info: It looks like the Harwood District has recently(?) taken claim to the Citymark on the Katy Trail building. The one that has the Balfour Beatty signage. Not really big news, but, I think this is a fairly recent addition. New to me for sure. https://...

Seriously, lol.
But, meanwhile e.g. Addison, pops in the FAA files for a ridiculous number of requests for very small height requests for construction of the line. So, maybe the News can have something to go with as a change-up.

For a sec there, I really thought this was a new article and another concept derived from the current environment of 2020 and beyond, haha. Hmm. . .

Thanks for the update. I'd been wanting to go over and see how that was going along.

The year that buildings just start popping up seemingly out of nowhere. ; )

^ Thanks for posting. It's a mess over there. I got off at Pearl.
