Las Colinas/North Irving Development

Nice. Hope it’s something really significant. Any indication of how much of the remaining empty property was included? Seems like such a great site.

That’s pretty exciting! Your description of the Northshore Project mostly mimics what is the projected site plans shown on KDC’s website:

Very exciting! Similar headline in the DBJ:

After reopening in April, Walk-On's has gone out of business. Signs are gone and their website no longer lists the location.

[Kelley USA]

So, I may or may not have helped both the DMN & DBJ break the North Shore news... I was really hoping that either of them would dig a little bit more into the project and come up with some renderings. I know the both have contacts at KDC & GFF, but seems like everyone is still pretty tight lipped about this.

As for Walk-On's, it was never really busy even after they opened. They're currently building a new location in Euless, and work on that location basically seems stalled for the past several months. I went a few times and thought it was good.

Say Kelley, looks like construction has started again on the site at Bush Tpk and Las Colinas Blvd (where Market Street was going to be). Any idea what’s planned now? I’m guessing retail since there’s a “For Lease” sign by the road. Good to see movement again after they dozed the trees then stopped.

Is Lifetime the only thing going there? The entire plot of land has been cleared and it's a huge space.

The square footage for a Lifetime Fitness can vary widely.

There's a 42K sq. ft. location in Far North Dallas, and then they're opening a 255K sq. ft. location in Houston.

If what's going on the land in question is in fact a Lifetime Fitness, it's possible that location will run on the higer end in size.

[TXGunLover]

Yes, it sounds like it. There are mention of some mid-tier restaurants as well, but given how quickly that plan fell apart a few years ago, I'll believe it when I see it.

[lwtx]

Agreed. The site has always seemed questionable to me for retail, with no visibility and tricky access. Destination businesses like LTF might help. Thanks for the info.

Hey, yes, Lifetime Fitness is going in. The site is being prepared to accommodate 4 pad sites for restaurants, and a 2 story office building is also part of the current plan. Not sure if we'll see any of the restaurants come back that were signed as part of the original plan before Market Street pulled out. But I do know Chuy's, Hopdoddy & Lazy Dog had all signed LOI's.

Score another Fortune 500 for Irving / Las Colinas! Caterpillar is officially moving. I remember when they leased at Williams Square last year, it wwas supposed to be just a regional office. I guess they were being a bit coy.

Looks like Builders Firstsource, another Fortune 500 is also relocating from Dallas downtown to Las Colinas. This means, at least until Exxon Mobile formally moves out, Las Colinas will be home to 10 Fortune 500 HQs. At this rate, looking forward for LC to soon beat the count in Dallas!

With Builders FirstSource's exit, Downtown Dallas only has three Fortune 500 headquarters, so it looks like even after losing Exxon Mobil, Las Colinas will have three times the number of Fortune 500 companies as downtown Dallas.

AT&T
Jacobs Engineering
Enlink Midstream

[Pukar2000]

Per 2022 listing, Dallas has 11 Fortune 500 and 8 Fortune 1000 compared to Las Colinas with 8 (plus Caterpillar plus Builders Firstsource) and 3 Fortune 1000. We need 2 more relocations in LC in order to beat the count in Dallas.

[Tucy]

Your first post compared Las Colinas to downtown Dallas, which only has three.

The 11 in Dallas includes Builders FirstSource, so Dallas is now down to 10, With the addition of Builders FirstSource and Caterpillar, Las Colinas is up to 10. So, Las Colinas needs only 1 more to move ahead of the entire city of Dallas.

Fingers crossed!

And Goldman Sachs for downtown, while we're at it.

With all the growth in Las Colinas... is there any hope of the APT coming back online?

[Pukar2000]

It would be timely to see it come back alive! Below is the last update from 2020, when DCURD published a RFP to not only upgrade the system, but also expand the rails further into the Planned Northshore Project, TMF, Convention Center, and even onto the Riverside Drive, plus 2 infill stations within existing tracks…Let’s see when we see though!

Just going to leave this here... Mandalay Canal Walk. Not sure if it'll ever come to fruition, but this info was just posted on the Retail Street website on Friday. If nothing else, some nice renderings.

EDIT: Wrong thread

[undefinedprocess]

I think a brand new condo tower where the units are priced under $1mm could do well in the Knox area. I could also see a condo tower at the upcoming Quadrangle re-development, a tower in West Village, or a tower in Deep Ellum doing well too.

It seems like the few condo towers we get in Dallas are priced significantly higher and, personally, I think the location of these towers is just 'okay'.

Wrong thread?

[potatocoins]

Lol, whoops. Absolutely!
