Dallas Fort Worth Urban Forum

I worked in this building on the 40th floor back in early 2000's at TXU before they all fell apart. The building was really a cool place to work very big money 1980's monolithic finish out. It could probably be reworked into a really nice mixed use project.

So how cool if this goes up and Perot can put his big tower next to this one at the freeway. It will totally change the skyline.

Could be that the lot with the gas station next door is going to end up being a bigger building that will obstruct those views.

If we can keep our economy chugging along this area can really transform in density along with the new streetcar.

I love it. I noticed during the superbowl footage that downtown Houston looked dark with almost no lighting really dull could barely see it at night. I love Dallas skyline as it looks hopefully towards the future.

Would rather have seen this incorporated into the bottom of denser developement including the next door lowrise property.

I thought there was a developer readying a 40 story apartment tower in that area which should enliven this part of downtown.

Since this deal almost fell apart I don't care what they name it. This would have put a damper on Downtown if it had fallen through I am fine with The Drever.

I rode the new modern streetcar out of downtown to Bishop Arts a few weeks ago. I was glad to see how smooth and fast it was. Would love to see the MATA line and Bishop Arts line merged into one modern system connecting up to Knox. Would really change the entire urban area.

With all the taxpayer money they are using to pay for the stadiums I doubt we will see any mass transit in Arlington for a long while.

I heard that the old Cafe Brazil space is up for lease out after they move. Is the Melrose deal to take that land over done or not. I would hate to see that old rickety space get released rather it get torn down.
