Victory Park 3.0

[cowboyeagle05]

Still I wonder how they will tackle that ADA parking in the future. Surely there is a way to provide adequate access for the ADA needs of a venue like the AA Center and not keep just a sizable open parking lot.

I forgot the name of this development, and I'm not entirely sure if this area is still considered Victory Park. This is just north of Wooddall Rogers right across the street from where the Hard Rock Cafe used to be.

Driving by the harwood no 12 site, around the fence there is graphics and updated signage for a new prosperity bank which will be right next to it and across from the rolex hq site.

This is the old stark club. There's a thread for that project already..it's the west end 1.0 thread

PNC Bank buys naming rights to plaza outside Dallas' American Airlines Center

On the heels of buying the US operations of BBVA (locally, the former Compass Bank), PNC has snagged the naming rights to the plaza south of the AAC from AT&T.

Just to add and clarify,

The "solutions center" is nothing more than a traditional-sized bank branch, and according to the article in the Dallas Business Journal, their goal is for it to "begin operations by at least Q2 of 2021."

Will be interesting to see how they do parking on that small corner lot. It will probably end up being a drive thru ATM and the rest surface parking. lol

[I45Tex]

Thanks jrd, and Tucy.

When Compass Bank was bought, BBVA kept their former headquarters office in Birmingham but added senior staff at a BBVA USA parent headquarters in The Woodlands, Texas. It later moved to the Galleria area of Houston. With PNC's pending acquisition of BBVA USA, I haven't heard of PNC saying they're going to sideline either city (Birmingham and Houston), and as far as I can tell Pittsburgh still has a lock on the headquarters in a way Detroit didn't with Comerica.

Still interesting to imagine what scenarios would lead to this new national consumer bank system adding office jobs in Dallas rather than Houston or Pittsburgh, though.

Local developer offers glimpse at future development possibilities in Victory Park

Hillwood owns an 8.5-acre parking lot along Victory Avenue, where on the southernmost portion, Victory Commons One is currently being built. Two more office towers could eventually join it, the company revealed earlier this week.

"It's always been in the plans, that we would have three buildings there. We could potentially combine the second and third buildings into a larger complex, but we always thought about the eight and a half acres being for office buildings," Reese said.

The three towers combined could offer up to 1.5 million square feet of new office space, according to marketing material released by Hillwood.

So far, no tenants have been announced at Victory Commons One. Hillwood is marketing and leasing the property themselves. The project, which is being developed in partnership with San Antonio-based USAA Real Estate, is expected to deliver by November 2021. Reese says USAA Real Estate is not currently attached as a partner to the future buildings.

Those magnolia apartments are cheap looking with that beige stucco

[willyk]

I am also disappointed to see the brewery building covered in stucco. I was hoping to see the old brick like the rest of the West End. Was the old brick too fragile? Did removing the gray paint damage it.

[eburress]

Yeah, that's definitely disappointing about the Brewery building. They may as well have just razed the thing if stucco was what they were going to do.

[homeworld1031tx]

Ya, good god, what a waste. This brewery building is quite imposing on Woodall when you're going WB - the highway bumps right up against it. Having a cool, urban, brick façade would have looked so nice on this thing but no... now' we just get what looks like a Plano tilt wall flex warehouse sticking right up off the road...

[Dallas Gypsy]

Leave it to these developers to turn potential into a dud. Stucco trashitecture will look like ghetto slums in twenty years.

Looks like they've already accomplished that. Hideous.

[undefinedprocess]

Who's bringing pitchforks? I've got torches & signs!

[CTroyMathis]

It is definitely disappointing. I suppose maybe there was no hope for the brick after removing paint. I would've been fine with just repainting the brick after all the remodeling was complete than going this route.

Also, there could've been this from a design comp awhile back:

[CTroyMathis]

While I don't think it's very likely, I do contemplate if they have any intention for applying thin brick veneer tiles around the windows. . .

I guess there's a snowball's chance that this development will ever be built, especially in the wake the announcement of the Hunt buildings in Victory Park.

[Tnexster]

Would have been a nice addition.

[R1070]

I thought there were still plans for residential on the back surface lot.
