Re: Legacy West

I have heard that talks between Toyota, Chase and maybe Liberty Mutual have started to discuss transportation which could include shuttles to Parker Rd redline station and a bus system for the immediate area (Legacy West offices and retailers).

Re: Knox / Henderson - Knox Street Side

Thanks for all the pics and for finding this rendering. I've been wondering what this would be. Appreciate the time and effort put into updating everyone.

I always assumed all that land on the periphery was to keep protesters away!

Re: McKinney/Boll Tower - 2614 McKinney Ave - (18 ST)

I sure do like that McKinney Ave does not run in a straight line from DT to WV. It creates opportunities for more interesting architecture than just square boxes due to the odd lot shapes.

Re: Deep Ellum: Case Building

These tall buildings may bring retail that will change the DE vibe and that concerns me. The retail mix is already changing. We were down there last weekend and wandered into a store in one of the newly refurbished old spaces. The moment I was inside, I thought I was in Bishop Arts. The same mercha...

The question is....will they gut it an go for instant humongous sales, or will they think long term and redevelop? My initial thought would be, why wait, after all they are grocers, not real estate de...

Re: Knox / Henderson - Knox Street Side

I saw Bardot Place was going vertical too. I took some pics but forgot to upload them. Nothing really to see except "I" beams stinking out of the roof. I am not familiar with Room and Board. Looks nice and a good fit for the neighborhood. If they need more space, could they take the two av...

The current location at 4510 McKinney Ave has the windows covered with signs up that say coming January 2017 'FOR HOME...FORTY FIVE TEN...THE BEST OF DALLAS DESIGN'.
