Dallas Fort Worth Urban Forum

Though, it may be a landmark site, that is the furthest from a landmark building. I don't like it at all.

I'm hopeful we'll end up with an actual HEB at the Lemmon location. As for this tower and the other one on the boards a few blocks from it, I think it actually makes sense for the whole area to be more dense with a mix of towers, midrise, 4-8 story structures, and townhomes. While not all properties...

Great to know!

I really hope this one picks up some steam ASAP. It still seems like it has a long way to go and I never really get a sense of a lot of activity going on. That said, it is a large project and I know a lot was done before. I often felt the same when passing the Statler, but that one has been making i...

Heard a couple of days ago that Turtle Creek Village is up for sale again.

Very odd that they face the deadest part of the site, and ignore the plaza and Houston St where the action is. I bet whoever designed this did not even bother to visit the location. I don't hate that it faces Record, which is much more pedestrian friendly than Houston, but the surface parking along...

That rendering screams "Trader Joe's" for the base.

Harwood has finally updated their website. In fact, it looks like it is still a work in progress. The Rolex building is listed and the map with the purple/ royal blue buildings has been updated to only show buildings that are completed or are currently under construction. Under the "Coming Soon...

I've been looking forward to what comes of the redevelopment and mixing of incomes within Little Mexico Village for a long time and for all of the reasons stated above. I think a lot can be done with it that will go a long way to improve all around. While I am thinking about it, this reminds me of s...

Hannibal Lecter wrote:It is totally out of scale for the neighborhood. This isn't Uptown. It looms over everything on the eastern half of Deep Ellum. About half the height would have been fine.

To me it blends with Baylor.

Also, that end seems to be more Exposition Park and the edge of Deep Ellum

That little slice of pie from just south of Knox north until the pie ends at Central will, no doubt, organically become more dense and high end. It will be the missing link... Turtle Creek, but with more walkability and places to actually walk to. The apex of Uptown... where Uptowners aim to "m...

It would be better to simply have a commuter line like the TRE along 30 or close to it between Dallas and Fort Worth Downtowns with a stop in GP and Arlington. Then express trains on the route for events along with the scheduled trains. There should really be an express train option for Downtown Dal...

So the below article is from about a year ago... I wonder what it means now that an actual Central Market will be located just up the road. I heard several months back that Manny's was rumored to be moving to the newly constructed "house" restaurant across from 18th & Vine, so the empl...

A couple of reasons I'm sure for them I'm sure. Keep mind the set around the event is important and Fair Park while containing some beautiful architecture in some cases with tons of history isn't the same as the skyline setting that Big D NYE desires. WFAA wants to sell this event as a pseudo-NYC e...

I am really looking forward to this!

I think it is quite possible, as that is for the top tier and the range goes down to very typical rents in Uptown. I think Knox Park as whole is aiming to be Uptown without all of the bars and partying, which I think definitely has a place in this market. While Turtle Creek Does provide this to a de...

I think Novare Group could easily get a bang for their buck with SkyHouse Las Colinas and would love to see it happen.

This may be very good news for the redevelopment of the Kroger on Cedar Springs in Oak Lawn

The tower crane for this one went up at the end of last week.

They've really moved along at a quick pace on getting this one started. The crane will be up soon. Here's a new video...I like the European-style cafe arcade. After the video, scroll down and there are quite a few good stills. http://www.harwood10.com/introducing-no-10?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_...

If AAC is ever demolished, I hope an underground parking garage is put in its place and that a large part of the footprint becomes a park and then we'd have an actual Victory Park. Decking part of lowest Stemmons or even putting a nice bridge or at least a bridge to the rail stop would be the cherry...

I really hope they bring back the pinstripe lighting. Though, changing them to LED with the ability to change colors. Staying white most of the time as its signature and changing for holidays and events. That said, I have loved what BofA has been doing with it's lights this week. If anyone hasn't se...

That's a good point. I do think that, for some people in Uptown, it may discourage people that live in Uptown to go to the CBD Farmer's Market. But, you're probably right in that it will attract many new people who wouldn't have otherwise gone in the first place. It feels like there is, currently, ...

Can't the Stars and concerts /events stay at American and the Mavs and concerts/ events go to the new facility and then a deck park on that that section to connect the 2 when lowest stemmons is redeveloped?! It would be a sports and entertainment Mecca, would connect victory with design and the last...
