[quote="lakewoodhobo"]The model unit looks great. Remember when they said this would never work because of the low ceilings.

It does looks great and I'm glad this project has worked out so well. They just need to add full height drapery to elongate the short windows.

Well, it's been delayed once and it looks like it won't make the next date either. It was probably removed from the website till things are more firmed up closer to the real ready-to-open date.

Maybe they don't act like IKEA which the app and website suggest I visit the Grand Prarie location every time because of it being physically closer. I would gladly do so if it had been built and opened yet.

The first units are now available in May. We'll see if they can get that lobby ready in 2 months.


The residential lobby is on Jackson, so it's one level lower than the hotel lobby facing Commerce. I believe they also use the former service elevator bank making it easy to separate the hotel/apartment residents. There is a new vehicle entrance at that level as well.

The first apartment residents at the Statler moved in today.

Today, we proudly welcome our first residents. These urban pioneers truly understand our vision and are officially members of The Statler Legacy Program!


The abandoned Statler appeared on the National Trust's Most Endangered list 10 years ago and has taken nearly as long to renovate. Countless people said it couldn't be done.

Amazing to see this project come to fruition. Might not have been what everyone wanted to met the expectations that it originally set out with, but is still fantastic to see it finish out none the less

I also noticed they are now on the Curio Collection website. It has renderings of most the hotel. It shows an opening date of Nov 27.

I found this slide in my collection, taken shortly after the Statler opened (view from Commerce Street).

And if you want a reminder of what this end of downtown looked like 10 years ago (when I moved to the neighborhood), here are some views from 2007. Desolate would be a kind word. The residents moving into the Statler as "urban pioneers" don't know what they are missing. Amazing transformation.

I'll admit that I am a 50s junkie, but the building is a great example of the period architecture and the setting, with unencumbered views from the park, puts it on the must-see-must-do list for Dallas. What better place is there to share a few Martinis and listen to some Rat Pack? I expect that the opening will generate big buzz for downtown and energize the rest of EMC.

If the renderings on Hilton's website are to be believed (second image), then I'm more than a little bummed that the elevator bank isn't being returned to original (first image).

I see that some residences are available for move-in now, but is there an open entrance somewhere yet? How are these people able to get in?

As for the hotel portion, Curio's website says they're taking reservations starting in October. :shock:

The Statler Dallas, Curio Collection by Hilton will be open soon. We're accepting reservation for arrivals on or after 01 Oct 2017

Well, that was the old loading dock/kitchen space so it was never designed to be a welcoming entry. I believe residents will also be able to connect through the hotel lobby, as well.

Now the website says November 27 instead of October for reservations. Well, I guess, better late than demolished.

I think you are confusing cheap with a classic mid-century design. I am not saying it is a showstopper as pointed out above since it was previously a worker entry point for the old hotel but it looks very appropriate for the style of the building. Uncomplicated lines with a clearly articulated scale for entry and a lack of unneeded auxiliary decoration.

Shouldn't there be a florist, baker, organic macrobiotic Chinese take-out, mail center or dry cleaner right next to the resident entry?

Considering there's as many or more people living directly across the street, Jackson Street should be packed with retail for mundane residential & pantry needs instead of the alley it's been for the last half century.

Just a block and a half down, the street is a pedestrian mall for AT&T. What a damaging blow to the quality of life should Jackson and Wood Streets go without total renovation catering to pedestrians -- at least between Griffin and (whatever is happening with) Pearl/Cesar Chavez expressways.

"CADG Jackson Parking A LLC, an affiliate of Centurion American Development Group, plans to break ground on a six level subterranean parking garage located at the northeast corner of Hardwood [sic] and Jackson streets in downtown Dallas," Centurion American Development representatives said in a statement. "Future plans also include construction of residential housing units above the garage.

"Construction on the garage should begin July 2017," the spokeswoman said. "The garage is being built to help meet the parking needs of the Statler Hotel & Residences as well as the Statler Library which will become the new home of The Dallas Morning News this fall."

Does this mean the building with Doug's Gym and the 7-Eleven will be gone? The lot is a bit of an odd shape, so I'm curious what the plan is.

What is odd is that site already has some sort of underground parking garage. There is a ramp on what was city property at Commerce and Harwood. Kingston was working on getting the city to sell the land so this opportunity could move forward since the Dallas Morning News wanted to sign on if this part of the project moved forward. I have never been down that ramp so I don't know where it leads but I sure am curious where Centurion is going with all this.

My question is are those old building protected in some form? I mean I believe they are in the Harwood Historic District...http://dallascityhall.com/departments/sustainabledevelopment/historicpreservation/Pages/harwood_street.aspx

I used to think that the old ramp went under Commerce to the basement of the Municipal Building, but a building was on that site from 1913 until the late 1970s (serving as a business school, overflow offices for City Hall, auto parts store, seed store, and adult bookstore). Perhaps the city bought it later for additional storage of police vehicles?

The other buildings on that block are compatible but not contributing to the historic district (similar to the 1950s Titche's expansion which was modified by UNT with new windows). It means their preservation will be debated but it doesn't automatically ensure protection. Anything built in that block will undergo similar restrictions to new construction in the West End.

  • Overeasy, "serving farm-to-table breakfast, lunch and dinner, and featuring a gourmet coffee bar, counter seating and patio on Commerce Street overlooking Main Street Gardens."
  • Scout, "a 12,000-square-foot social space offering a scratch American menu with shareable items and craft beer on tap. Scout will feature live music, flat-screen televisions, four bowling lanes, four Ping-Pong tables, billiards tables and foosball."
  • Fine China, "a full-service lunch and dinner Pan-Asian restaurant and cocktail bar, featuring sake, Japanese whiskies, high tea, communal seating, private rooms and weekend DJs."
  • Bourbon & Banter, an "underground cocktail lounge with an extensive bourbon and whiskey library and craft cocktails, open from 4 p.m. until late."
  • Waterproof, "a poolside roof deck bar and lounge, situated on the 19th floor, offering 360-degree panoramic views, weekend DJs, resort-style service and craft cocktails."
  • And the Grand Ballroom, "a nearly 12,000-square-foot flexible space that will play host to A-list concerts, large-scale events, and will be downtown’s premiere wedding destination. Full of history, this ballroom once featured performers including Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett and Michael Jackson."

http://www.dallasobserver.com/restauran ... es-9650201

I had no idea there was so much space for retail here. Only one of them (overeasy) mentions having patio space, so is it safe to assume that the rest won't really have much street presence? If so, that's a bit of a shame, but this is an older building, wasn't designed to have the street presence some of the newer buildings do.

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 with the Statler.

Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy with conversion of this building. I just wish we had more shopping for downtown residents and guest.

I've been waiting for this announcement and certainly glad they have their lineup ready (yes to bowling lanes!), I just wish these concepts worked a little harder to go with the cool midcentury vibe.

"Bourbon & Banter"? I thought we were done with alliterated names. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Since there will be more foot-traffic at the Statler, I really hope Main Street Garden can step it up on maintenance.

That is a harder sell even Deep Ellum has been trying to swing that stuff too. A bunch of the buildings in Deep Ellum was sold off recently to a new owner that specializes in shopping like retail cause the current owner hasn't been able to make it happen. The numbers still seem to be not enough for clothes and hard goods shopping. That and none of the retailers seem to believe people look at Downtown or Deep Ellum as a shopping destination I know that may surprise many of you. I think the final wave of positive news will be when retailers do see Downtown as a possible location for some shopping.

If you walk by the front you can look into the diner that is going in at the Commerce/St. Paul corner. It looks pretty awesome I hope the prices are doable. They have certainly done some great restoration on the interiors and exteriors around the ground floor. The building will always look historic since many design features can not be replaced but simply cleaned up. I am so glad they saved this building and you can tell the Old Library is the next phase. They have been doing slower things there while they finish the hotel and retail space. I just don't know when they will move forward with more parking that they need.

I thought I heard that the DMN was moving in July or August (unless it's next year?). The old library redo isn't really going at the pace that I would think they'd be going, for them to have a tenant already lined up waiting to move in there. Parking somewhere would be needed for the DMN's people, I guess that's another reason they haven't already moved.

On the other hand, that restaurant/bar on the corner of Commerce and St Paul looks ready to open any minute.
