Dallas Fort Worth Urban Forum

It's technically within Oak Lawn.

I'd post photos, but, nah. I see this and 2811 pretty much daily walking by. I'm sure someone will let us know the moment a crane goes up if I don't remember to mention it!

So, perhaps the old DP&L Building had an affair with the young Novel Turtle Creek while at The Mayfair driveway and this is the result. : )

Parking 7 levels below ground AND 10 levels above ground. Just wow.

Lol. What a weird report "need". I get it though, just kind of low key wtf, oh squirrel! Honestly, my pockets have no F's to give about this project, but, I'll certainly pay attention.

But, please keep the info coming. Not trying to debbie downer the thing!

I still can't wrap my head around that choice of lighting. I see this every morning pretty close up. I feel like I'm in Christmas Vacation meets Groundhog Day and HAL 3000 has a Speak & Spell voice by Limp Bizkit. They sure have a different take on feng shui in Swexas. Lost a chance to shine in ...

Haha, underrated post I45Tex

Just throwing this one in real quick (another one I'm not sure was ever posted so might as well make sure) : https://www.smu.edu/ignited/news/gifts/weber-end-zone-complex-jan-2022 https://dallasinnovates.com/smu-breaks-ground-on-100m-end-zone-complex-at-gerald-j-ford-stadium/ https://www.tdlr.texas....

Lol. Priorities.

Yes, traffic must be of great concern near two cemeteries and a modest amount of density already there that somehow isn't already creating "traffic". Like they aren't the traffic. Where's my pool noodle.

But, anyway, look forward to this project happening. I have no idea if it will, but, it'll be such a good step in the right direction on that side. Might not look bad either. I have my own thoughts on the rest of the parking lots nearby, they're just daydreams - would be nice to complete this area t...

I love f'ing with people about Oak Lawn being right next to the West End. But, it just gets lost on co-workers. I do it anyway.
I have to be careful with the TOOL acronym, I'm not in the Navy anymore.

Something called The GOAT. Whateverness. https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/TABS/Search/Project/TABS2023009597 No idea if it's related to the other The Goat. Edit in: Yep, no - not related. I couldn't get the info to Gubbins fast enough. https://whatnowdfw.com/modern-restobar-moving-into-the-link-at-uptown/

The more you all link to it and visit, the more they will Jedi mind-trick/change it. They are noticing the inbound link locations.

lol, just messing around. kind of.

I saw that, too, and was mildly surprised it was still a thing.

Preston Center is like small Ballston or mini-Rosslyn in Arlington, VA. You'd almost think there just had to be a train stop there somewhere or a super major bus center, but, yeah.

Thanks for all the photos above. I don't make it back to those old stomping grounds much.

The garage is absolutely ridiculous. And, lol to the 23 empty Brazilian steakhouses. That was low-key funny as hell.

This was just slid on in there like don't mind me. I wonder if they meant to include that:

That parking lot is hilariously always full of vehicles daily (contractors and whatnot for nearby places I guess). But, strangely, the little uphill lot to it off of Olive after the hard turn isn't. You could film a Zombieland scene there. Today there were unclaimed boots and a cup of urine sitting ...

Maple Terrace residential tower is very much under construction already. It however isn't 30ish. But, still a lot of stuff going on in that Maple Ave. corridor nonetheless. (And, within vicinity, more that could be going on if proposals become reality.)

Ok, for whatever reason Sean's attachment wasn't loading for me until just now so I've answered my own question. Hmm, maybe it's unrelated to Isosceles.

FWIW, the city's permit center tells us that building permits have not yet been issued for this project. (2323 Commerce Street - 2207111106) So back to the original question, what are they doing across the street on Commerce if this is not staging? This site correct? The one below Commerce on map? ...

^Agreed. Here's some stuff from today: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fj0orj1XkAAZ8u4?format=jpg&name=large https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fj0orj0XoAAKsNY?format=jpg&name=large https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fj0orjyWYAI0a2U?format=jpg&name=large https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fj0orjzX0AUJutd?format=...

One thing we all can likely rely on, this is a set of visuals that are dated and aren't happening anyway. Maybe one day Harwood will get their cool sky-balcony thingie on a building. Until then, just hope a 20 story garage doesn't abut practically the full height of The Ascent ~50ft or less away. HD...

That might as well been their Super Bowl!

And, man that dude can boot a ball.

And, btw, this forum is hemisphere and earth friendly. Don't be shy to cheer on any or several other national teams as you choose. I tend to stick to the side of the planet closest to the US. The last one four years ago had me flying Mexico until they couldn't pull it off anymore. It was really exci...

Ok, so Ecuador won yesterday. Not a surprise, although for a minute there early, I fell for the offsides goal call and was wondering wait what. . .? But, it was alright. Offsides in this sport is precision to a point you. . . well never mind. Lets not get into offsides. It's like a souffle. US got a...

For anyone interested in the upcoming matches.

I'd be totally fine if that kind of *mixed infill crept along here and there within what we call the Design District. Even cooler if they keep most designs a little industrial-looking, wood and metal and so on. Not asking for steampunk, but, . . . And, for each one that pops-up here and there, perha...

Earlier this week.

I think that one was or is going to be called Sherman Lofts. I seem to remember something about a mural being painted on part of the project as well.

We can move posts over accordingly. No worries. I'll edit this thread title as well.

Yes, individual threads for all of these projects are desired. This thread has needed to be broken up for a long time. Also, renamed. Knox Park works for me. Back in the day, Victory Park had a catch-all for odds/ends and indiv. threads for every building for example. You must've been reading my min...

It will be, indeed, according to plans - under the private grass and tree area.

I was only curious if there would be a leftover garage for interim use. Not that I want one left behind, though.

Thanks for the info!

Good photo journalism. Suddenly dawned on me, curious about the concrete garages now. . .

Are those Minecraft trees? : )

Mid-December (tentatively) FS in Las Colinas will be taken over by Marriott corporate. It will go under the title of (The?) "Las Colinas Resort", and, internally the employees (current or newly-hired) will start their kool-aid intake of RC brand standards and everything else that goes alon...

Same here!

Also, since they are the owner and operator, they very much so could have slowed the project down on purpose by shifting construction workers away to other projects. Doing so may have also meant people they hired to run the operations might have jumped ship to work on other projects or companies ra...

Yes, we will relocate the Hofmann Hots from the temporarytecture building. Never was going to happen.

It is. Harwood has never moved very fast on their mid- to high-rises.

They, however, are currently hiring for some hotel jobs if that helps concerns.

It's an el oh el. And, no one should be surprised. The three-on-the-right-non-timber-looking buildings for GS are seemingly basic based on the rendering - reality being probably a different level of basic. The greenwashed roofs sure are a special touch. The several rendered buildings in the backgrou...

Thread merge/maintenance completed.

It would be an incredible disappointment if this whole site does not at least double the *previous residential unit number at some point.
