Harwood Park being residents' literal front yard would make this super desirable housing. The only comparable housing in all of downtown that I can think of are the condos across the street from the restaurant space at Klyde Warren, and truth be told between the two I'd probably prefer this Harwood Park location.
It doesn't make sense to me that this isn't being built pronto. They added additional floors to the original plans because they were so optimistic about the appeal of the project right? Did the whole thing get snagged somewhere along the way?

Alright, guess it's time to pack it up, boys. Tucy doesn't think residential in Downtown Dallas is viable. It'll take a little while for me and the other 13,000 or so residents to sell or break our leases for his prediction to be made correct, but I for one am looking forward to our new rural lifestyle. Once we do that, he finally won't have to worry about that big bad D2 subway causing him nightmares anymore.
I look forward to coming back to this "Rural Development" forum to get suggestions about the best Tractor Supply Company in the region to buy horse feed.

As to the second point, yeah probably. I'd be curious what the vacancy rates look like for all those nearby Farmers Market apartments.
What seems like less of a slam dunk is the Cabana Motor Hotel redo from the same developer. The quietness around that makes sense to me, this does not.

Wow, if you tried to craft a dishonest post, you could hardly do better than this. Not being the slam dunk that many fantasize is well short of, and quite different than, declaring that residential in downtown Dallas is not viable. Of course it's viable.

Well Karen, maybe if you could start to word your post so you don't come off as a jealous 5th grader, 95% of the posters here might give a shit what you had to say. I would still manage to stay in that 5%, though.

I think it depends on their owners. If they are part of the EQ project, I hope they can be salvaged. If not, they need to be raised and something new built in their place ASAP. They are in very sad shape now. The parking lot on the corner of Commerce & Harwood screams for attention. Let's hope something good goes in that spot.
undefinedprocess wrote:Pretty sad that the project shrunk once again (after it was announced that extra floors had been added in 2020), but glad that it's finally starting, and glad that retail has been added. Do wonder how they determined they needed to reduce the residential unit count (and hence, # of floors) since there's such incredible demand for housing right now.
