And here are some renderings. I think it fits the area well- staid and refined. Not an architectural breakthrough, but perfect for Preston Center. https://dmn-dallas-news-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com/resizer/kokPLlRW7DYPt11LSejdSYTKXYM=/1660x934/smart/filters:no_upscale()/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-dmn....

Shocker (to me at least), there were workers on the RH site on Knox today. I had given up on this. The weeds had grown taller than the columns. They appear to be placing forms for the exterior wall foundations. There seem to be more materials on-site than I remember as well. It’s full steam ahead f...

Tiffany & Co. and Louis Vuitton are coming to Legacy West... This development has been such a success on the retail front, I wonder if they'll try to keep adding retail (although I have no idea where they'd put it). https://www.dallasnews.com/business/retail/2020/03/24/legacy-wests-newest-build...

Would love to see this entire area from Spring Valley from the tollway to Preston to 635 become a new urban area of Dallas. It is well positioned to do so. I think that larger vision of yours could one day tie together Midtown and Addison Circle (with Cotton Belt rail coming soon to its bus transit...

Well to put it all in perspective the beauty of all world cities is the fact you can count the decades the cities have existed by their architecture. I would certainly be bored if a city was all CLassic Architecture had no sign of movement and evolution. I couldn’t agree more. It’s the layers of hi...

So this info is from a friend’s friend, but he was saying the Belk departure was mutual between Trademark & Belk. I assume that even as a “flagship”, there is not enough strong brand recognition in Texas and starting in small, rural towns ( Weatherfors,etc) didn’t make anyone think “luxury “. Ev...

do people really buy all those expensive watches? it seems every major high-end watch purveyor has opened an outpost in Dallas. impressive.

NdoorTX

Yuck, I hope the City has required something aesthetically pleasing and possibly screened in. Retail storefronts on the street level would be nice as well.

that drone link is great! Uptown, Klyde Warren + DTD look fantastic.

For better or worse, this seems to be moving ahead. Hopefully the design has improved and retail added.

Looks like demo is going full tilt. Most of the ground floor skin has been removed and random windows are missing all along the facade.

I wonder if certain companies have no interest in Dallas, but, since we known for ponying up the big bucks, they like to use us for leverage. I definitely felt that way about HQ2, and it could have been the case here as well. They went where they really wanted to go, the talent base alone heavily f...

I recently flew in from El Paso to Love Field. The flight path took us from south Dallas up north where we banked left over 635 and had an expansive view of the northern burbs.

There will be no RH GUESTHOUSE as part of this project. PERIOD.

Anyone know what that’s about? Not enough sales to satisfy NP? Overall corporate retrenchment? Online sales backlash? This concept should have been a no brainer.

I agree with your rankings for the most part. I was just in Chicago and I must say that DFW has quite a few stores that Chicago does not.

I commented just this weekend on how great NCX was looking. Finally, perhaps, we have a landscape that will survive those horrid conditions.
