Really good stuff @undefinedprocess!!

Have you thought about adding the following content to each item:
- total height
- number of stories

Just in case you're looking for some recommendations ;=}

How tall would a mixed-use 38 story building be? I’m highly disappointed with the height of 488’ if this is still the plan they go with. And it being the centerpiece of the project it said in the article? I’m tired of these lowball projects meanwhile Austin is pumpin out 700+ feet towers and a supe...

How long has the website been up? Website looks pretty fleshed out.

looks cool

If anyone’s interested here’s a podcast from KRLD with Scott Rohrman talking about the project: https://www.audacy.com/krld/podcasts/ceo-spotlight-743/scott-rohrman-principal-42-real-estate-557525692 A great listen. Thanks for sharing. I feel there is a considerable amount of momentum building up (...

Wish I could find that rendering without the top and bottom cut off. It bugs me when the DMN does that for article headers and doesn't put the full image in a gallery. Also, just a heads up to the OP, the link is incorrect. It links to an old article about Newpark. Here's the correct link: https://...

Sadly, I have a feeling that the 1-acre park will be as useful as the concrete lawn in Victory... a place to walk your dog as you take in the 360 view of parking garages. The only way to make this work would be to make it an extension of the Perot entrance, with compatible architecture and landscap...

Speaking of damp squid, My inside sources tell me these are the most recent and accurate renderings of Hillwood’s iconic gateway to Dallas. :mrgreen: 3F5A724D-77BE-4F24-8412-C793A88404A9.jpeg 2F0F75D3-AF0B-40F2-A0B6-AD694CA5540E.jpeg Ha! Don't encourage them though - given their penchant for buildi...

Anyone know how tall it will be?

Not true.

What you can't do is eat your cake and have it too.

Nice find! Wouldn’t be my first choice, but its is much better than the current design. I’d break up a bit of the monotony with some texture changes near the tops of each box to create crowns at the top. Strap on some LEDs on this bad boy and you got an icon 8-) 515F8563-6BA3-4771-99E0-154F4F01025D...

Looks like Harwood has secured funding for this project and expected completion is set for mid-2023. https://www.dallasnews.com/business/real-estate/2021/05/20/developer-harwood-international-funds-new-tower-north-of-downtown-dallas/ ...Developer Harwood International has secured funding for its 27...

Frankly, I'm confused by need for a lead-tenant before they start construction. Who is going to wait 3 years for a building after they've decided they want to move? It's not as if Hillwood doesn't have the ability to get the funds to start a speculative project. Why don't they take a "build it...

While I don't love the design, it's definitely better than a surface lot. If nothing else it will add density and there is still the other side of the street for development of a larger/taller complex. Btw, maybe the FAA has limited the height of the structure. Given the Perot ego, I'm sure Jr. wou...
