I'm still very much worried. I don't see substantial progress. And it's not like this development started a few weeks ago. I still think this developer is in over his head. The amount of restarts is scary.

Historical building in downtown Dallas West End opens for tenant tours A historically recognized building in downtown Dallas is about to hit the limelight. Located at 601 Elm St., the 113-year-old Purse Building has been thoughtfully renovated and is now ready to get the party started. The building...

Will it ever get done? It is suppose to be completed by this fall. Hopefully, there isn’t another delay.

Ha!

Ppl are making fun of this festival on the r/Dallas Sub Reddit. It's quite hilarious.

I'm more concerned about Fountain Place, an architectural gem, getting blocked, which is why a true twin would've mitigated such possibilities. Skylines are to be enjoyed at different angles. Preventing a new building from blocking out another one from a certain view is not good idea as this discou...

Unsure where to post... Technically it's oak Cliff so I'll place here. .. The Trinity Flooring and Tile buildings off Beckley and 30 have been demolished.

Who cares if does. The building will be visible through other angles.

What an absolute shame if the destroy a 1916 building for parking. A step backwards for Dallas in all possible ways.

Well, the loopnet listing was updated just 4 days ago. However, it's not the cylindrical design that was once kicked around. It's the other design which I think has been the preferred design by Hillwood for awhile now. Maybe something is moving forward?? Listing and marketing brochure links below. ...

East Quarter is off to great and fast start. I am hoping to see new some construction here that will start to bridge DE, EMC and Farmers Market. Maybe Carpenter or Harwood Park will start up too and add to the momentum. I am also liking the new building about to deliver at Cesar Chavez and Marilla ...

So much BS rolls out of CES. The majority of the new ideas never get out of R&D.

I hope they reconfigure the seating. Let people face each other rather than having ailes. rows require people having to excuse one another when getting up to leave or sitting down. Most rail systems aren't designed like this for that very reason.

I would love to see a CVS or a bank there as long as it's one or two stories tall. Unfortunately they'll probably put another 6 or 7 story monolith there. High density development is already hurting the character of the neighborhood. It's beginning to feel like living in the bottom of a crater, wit...

Cedars-South Dallas is becoming the next big thing, grand-scale gentrification (hopefully managed appropriately...) as the residential cornucopia between the renewing big-city downtown and the big-city urban park-arcade fills up with all the goodies. When this swath turns over, Dallas will have fou...

Nice article and some good points. Have to ask the question, why on earth would the city waste money on a visitor center? People still use those things? Don't most people just ask their phones for information now? That seems very....old world. Because they need the visitor center to the mask the fa...

How can you build a residential project on a garage while the garage is in use?

The residential portion was never a real thing. You honestly think they're going to start construction once Goldman's moves in? Wrong!

Is there potential for a 'cluster' of bars on Ross Ave? I've only been a couple of times, but everything feels a little too spread out there to really develop much of a nightlife. There's a couple of things prohibiting that from happening... You'd have to redevelop some of the current retail and re...

Pizza Hut park or The Star would be a better fit. You need amore intimate setting for a new league. Otherwise youre left a cavernous feeling playing in a sea of empty chairs.

Just like the Cowboys season, I'm too beat-down by a generation of losing to get excited by what seems like the right plan for this public wilderness!

Dunhill is keeping too tight a reign on the DD. I find it very telling that while new projects are being floated in almost every other neighborhood, very little is even on the drawing board here. They risk missing the market, at which point they become another Spire/Midtown. For as long as they hav...
