Page 11 has a rendering of phase II or possibly just a placeholder of what could be built. Looks fairly new. Never seen this before.

If uber does open up an office at the Epic, I hope they build a platform on whatever building they build. I think that's what the new buildings will be adding as an amenity. Would be cool to see that in phase 2.

dd_dweller

Can anyone snap the photo from the article? I'm not able to read it.

dd_dweller

Where was this located? What an awesome building. Wish we had more like these buildings instead of surface lots.

dd_dweller

If Dallas lands Uber, I’m sure phase 2 will get started a lot sooner than later. It mentioned two more towers could be added. I wonder how tall they can go. I hope it’s all mixed use. More residential and office with retail. They’ve done a good job so far. Super excited about this news. Dallas needs...

Well, it's not Fireside Pies, but... Starbucks has been named as the tenant for the storefront by the Hampton Inn. The article doesn't give a timeframe for completion or opening. https://www.bizjournals.com/dallas/news/2019/05/07/starbucks-commerce-street-downtown-dallas.html Now if we could get th...

Whats going on with the lots around exposition and main? The one random yellow house building and the old tattoo shop are fenced up.

The circled part I believe is different. I only see the plans for the gin site.

dd_dweller

What’s going on with the demolition of the building on elm and hall? Is it part of the continental gin development?

dd_dweller

Do we have any new renderings? The one on the DMN seems a lot boxier than previous renderings. Maybe that's what the backsides suppose to look like. IDK.

dd_dweller

Update on what these units will be? Are they going to be apartments or condos? Downtown lacks new affordable condos.

dd_dweller

Any news about phase 2 as mentioned before? Can't wait to see what it'll look like.

dd_dweller

Does anyone know what’s being done to the Neiman Marcus parking garage?

dd_dweller

The projects I'm most excited about are:

* The Epic and if successful phase 2
* Carpenter Park
* Discover District - I hope the architecture is bold and iconic

Seems like every corner of downtown is being developed. Hope this keeps going into 2019 and beyond.

dd_dweller

Any renderings for the park/improvements? I didn’t see any on the DDI Facebook page.

dd_dweller

Has there been any updates on the status of this project? This is now becoming a homeless camp area the past few weeks. I hope this doesn't become a tent city.

dd_dweller

Has anything been announced in regards to retail/restaurants being signed or lead tenants for the office tower?

dd_dweller

I haven’t seen a topic page for the Sheraton.

I drove by yesterday and it looks like they’re starting to remodel the entrance. It’s all blocked off now. There’s some picture at the parking garage. Anyone know what all is getting done?

dd_dweller

What are they doing to the intersection of Elm and Harwood st? It's close to this but I see the sidewalks being expanded but don't know if there's something more to it than just wider sidewalks.

dd_dweller

Drove by today and they tore down the liquor store along Ross. I know we shouldn't be too optimistic about this project.

dd_dweller

Driving by, I've seen them working on this road. Hopefully it's continuous work and not on and off again. This road has taken years to build.

With Tenoversix moving over to Forty Five Ten, what are they going to do with the current Tenoversix space?

dd_dweller

Does anyone know an update on this property? The liquor store closed down last weekend. They said they're tearing down the building.

Maybe Spire is finally making a move on its property.

dd_dweller

This project is never consistent. They have people working on it one day and the next few days nobody is on site. I don't understand that. No wonder this project is taking forever! Are they short on labor or something? Anyone have any info as to why the crew is seldom there?

dd_dweller

Across the street from the Gabriella is another worksite at Texas and Live Oak. The contractor is SunTech. I was looking on their website and I couldn't find anything. They do retail sites and standalone CVS stores. Anyone know how to find out whats being built on that site?

dd_dweller

Construction has started back up again on the parking garage. How many floors will the garage be? From previous renderings and articles, it does seem to have retail space in the parking garage. You can kind of see the layout of it driving down jackson. They have a ramp that goes up from jackson to t...

This project has started! I've been seeing work being done on all these sites. I'm excited to have a grocery store within walking distance. The lot across from this site, on live oak st is getting a lot of work done too. I think its part of this project. Phase 2 on the back side is completely fenced...

dd_dweller

I haven't heard anything about the Lifetime project anymore. Is this still happening or has this been killed?

The sites across the street from that project.

dd_dweller

Does anyone know why the site on live oak & Texas st is being cleared? At first I thought it was being cleaned up.

dd_dweller

Does anyone know what the streets going to look like once its finished? I like that the side of Cesar Chavez by the farmers market has trees in the middle. Will this new road have that as well or will it all just be a huge rode?

dd_dweller

I was walking by the new bar/restaurant, Bottled Blond, which opened in Deep Ellum and it was very busy! It seems isolated now but I'm sure things will open around it soon. With that said, I saw the building next door had a for lease sign that was taken down and people were moving out. There were n...

The only thing that bugs me is that it looks like the 105 year old Eagle's Nest Cathedral would be demolished, and a parking structure put in its place. It's hard to tell but I don't see it in the renderings. There's got to be a way to preserve it. It doesn't take up much land and could become a gr...

Quick question, with all these other small cities within the DFW putting a bid, doesn't it mean that they too have meet the requirements of being a city with 1million people? Do they think (suburbs) they meet the criteria because they're part of the DFW? I just don't think the suburbs are as attract...

dd_dweller

There's been some activity at the old vertigo salon on main street. I haven't seen any signs go up. It's been getting cleaned out. Hopefully this is good news and they have a new retailer.

dd_dweller

I love all that’s going on with this property but I wish we would get retail. All that gets announced Downtown is new restaurants. People need places to shop downtown. Don’t get me wrong, I’m very happy with all the activity going on downtown. We just need some new retailers people who live downtown...

dd_dweller

It seems like the lot next door is finally being prepped. Most of it has already been cleared.

Does anyone know what’s actually getting built? More apartments and a garage? Any renderings?

I haven't seen an update on this in awhile. Anyone have any news or updates regarding this?

dd_dweller

If done right, this could be a big draw for Dallas. If developed by a DART station, people from the suburbs could commute to the stadium. Even fans from the Dallas area could use dart. I know our city fails us sometimes but there is hope that this could be done right. They want to build new hotels a...

dd_dweller

This is something the downtown Dallas core has always wanted. A stadium that could host more than its intended sport. Hopefully the old Reunion Arena site is being looked at as well as the Spire site. This would be a big win for downtown. I'm not opposed to the Las Colinas site where the Texas Stadi...

dd_dweller

I'm happy for all the restaurants but is there no actual retail in this building? Downtown is filling up with restaurants but no where to really shop. Everyone cant afford neimans, traffic, or forty five ten. We need some retail options that most people can buy. I was hoping some stores would open w...

Two cranes are up on this site.

Does anyone have the official floor count on the residential building? This building seems to be a lot taller than what was mentioned on the DMN article. I'm basing this off of the renderings they released.

This project is moving fast! I'm so glad this is happening.

Now I wish Elan Citylights new apartment tower would go up. This area needs a grocery store to walk to.

dd_dweller

Over the weekend, the whole property at the Epic site was fenced in. Looks like they might be prepping the site.

dd_dweller

Today there was work being done on the Epic site. I saw work along pacific. Anyone know if they are moving forward with this site?

dd_dweller

With all the retail in downtown, how do companies representing the vacant store fronts get new tenants for them? Do they just hope that someone who might be interested in them calls them? Does UCR not do trade shows were they show the properties they have to potential national brands? I just feel li...
