First phase office. Second phase... ????

I'd like to see a hotel/residence combo. Give me 42 story condo building with views of KWP..

Hope they took care of the vermin

Too bad we can't START the businesses here. That's the flip side to this situation. The relocations won't last forever and if they do the competition will get stiffer to land them. https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewdepietro/2019/11/13/best-worst-states-entrepreneurs-2020/#12410f1546a6 Here are the...

Is this tower different than the 17 story building that the farmers market ppl were crying about?

Tivo_Kenevil

They could double deck the lanes. One on top the others. I'd be okay if they just removed all the on/off ramps. That's the biggest impediment imo.

Polar Bear Ashburns building is on fire and burning to the ground. Screen Shot 2020-01-16 at 10.20.02 PM.jpg Thank God. Yeah it’s been a dump for years, but only because the owners let it get that way. If you or I owned a house and let it rot like that, we would be up to our eyeballs in code violat...

All Dart lots should be mixed used stations. Imagine having a couple Mockingbird stations around town. That's just good for everyone including non-DART riders.

Can confirm Garland and Mesquite and Parts South of the Irving Convention Center in Irving are in rough shape. Arlington is ugly everywhere. I think Plano and Richardson have done a better job in staying relevant and more liveable when compared to other inner ring Suburbs. Im not familiar with Carro...

That sky bridge is such an eyesore

Tivo_Kenevil

One area I wish we DART thought about more is a circle around Dallas county and more service to Mesquite areas. Purple Line anyone? ... Mesquite, Allen, McKinney, Frisco have already said they don't want to be part of Dart. Why does everyone keep dreaming of expansion, towards areas that don't want...

"Trenching" 345 doesn't free up real estate though. I doubt anything but 1 story buildings would be allowed above a cut and cover "trench" rather do Riverfront and 35 than i345

Tivo_Kenevil

Any idea on the pricing?

Tivo_Kenevil

It'll probably be converted to a local Tex Mex spot.

Tivo_Kenevil

Well, that just means the Central Market development can include that land in their following phase. Could be part of the slowdown. If the land was suddenly available they might have sent the project back to be redesigned to take the land into account particularly if previous versions had this land...

Man, not HKS...

I'd rather trench 30 and 35

Sterling Bay sounds like a Barbados Rum distillery. I can't un-think this.

This has got the be the slowest building project from the last 3 yrs

Boooo....watch them add a hulking garage to the property.

Tivo_Kenevil

FB doesn't release any renders or make announcements as to what is coming here. They know the development is pure ass.

Tivo_Kenevil

Better yet just get rid of the baseball field and add more park!

Tivo_Kenevil

.... These stores shouldn't be asking for handouts.glad the city came to their senses.

Tivo_Kenevil

Sigh... The last thing the region needs is another music venue.It's like venues just keep cannibalizing each other. Somethings gotta give.

Tivo_Kenevil

Is this the reelfx space? Can't decide if this is uglier than the Hines Deep ellum project or not :/

I am fine with them building the tower but why are they just adding gaudier tower for what appears to be no reason? Like even its location on the site seems kinda thrown in like some sort of Sim City throw-in. Did they get a new Dallas Money expansion pack? +10 for Sim City Reference But seriously....

Tivo_Kenevil

Is it really a "public" landmark?... Old Parkland seems like the Willy Wonka factory. No one ever comes in, and no one ever comes out.

Hardly will be noticed by the public.

As a Richardson resident, I am excited to see the transformation of its downtown area. I think it could have the potential to join the ranks of charming downtowns like Plano, McKinney, Carrollton, etc. Not the biggest project of the year by any stretch, but exciting times in my northern burb. It's ...

No. This is from 2 yrs ago

Does anyone know if the project is still a twin tower plan? I'd love to see two 42 stories buildings facing downtown..

"Aggie owned and operated". Lol

I think the cedars will/should be the "edgy" part of town now.

"The development team says it will wait to break ground on the project until an anchor office tenant is found."

The project is Nothing more than lure at this point.

So, segregating systems and people from various companies or even business units within a company is more important than having a single fortress with a hard entry point. This is one of the reason 'campus' offices took off... You can put finance in one section, IT in another, customer care in their...

Tivo_Kenevil

Well if the rumors are true..why not consolidate the office towers into one large tower?

The "double" podium would effectively become the second half of the combined tower.

Tivo_Kenevil

The rendering focuses on Trees and an already built Dart station instead of the actual new development -____-

Me: Arlington may have the worst City Plan I've ever seen..

Mesquite:..ahem...
