Not familiar with this project - what exactly is it? Additional parking for AAC? Is the city doing it?

He is referring to the Harwood tower mentioned in another thread with a huge parking garage and more office space above it.

Only three more floors to go, it looks like.

Post by **Tnexster** » 11 Jan 2021 14:47

Very tall garage, almost looks like the garage has more square footage than the office portion.

It's pretty darn close, haha: https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/TABS/Search/ ... 2019017302

The Link at Uptown website states 292KSF rentable office space.

I really like how this looks. I think there’s one more floor left and then roof stuff.

It's looking great, unlike Harwood's new turd (Swexan) just down the street.

^^ Thanks for the photo.

Here's another recent look:

THRILLHO · Post by **THRILLHO** » 17 Mar 2021 19:44

It does a pretty good job disguising that half of it is parking.

This construction has moved along quite briskly on this project. Looks terrific.

Looking east. Slots in nicely between Saint Ann Court and The Christopher.

This makes a PRESENCE from Thomas and Maple-Routh, as well.

Can you imagine having to drive up 12 floors to park?

Post by **CTroyMathis** » 05 Apr 2021 13:23

Just another angle of the building from about a week ago:

I was underwhelmed by pictures of this one, bit it seems to be shaping up nicely.

Amazing to see this tower's exterior nearly completed, yet the nearby Swexan Hotel development, which broke ground well over a year prior than The Link at Uptown and is actually a smaller tower, is still not fully completed on the exterior.

R1070 · Post by **R1070** » 30 Apr 2021 22:31

Looks great. I wish that hotel had gone up where that small shopping strip is though.

Urbancowboy · Post by **Urbancowboy** » 03 May 2021 12:55

This new building looks great. It really enhances this part of Uptown.

Wasn't there a proposed development for this strip center some years ago? I assume it fell through because I haven't heard anything for a while. I'm sure it's only a matter of time though.

R1070 · Post by **R1070** » 03 May 2021 14:26

Yes that’s the hotel project I’m referring to.

In the meantime, the Pizza Hut has now given way to another pizza place.

Crane being disassembled today....

THRILLHO · Post by **THRILLHO** » 25 May 2021 15:43

So, uh, how's that crane disassembly going?
https://www.reddit.com/r/Dallas/comments/nkzbh7/did_a_crane_fall_over_near_victory_park/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

I assume laying it on its side is not part of the process?

But I guess if you've got a massive parking lot for space why not.

Confirmed was just part of the disassembly.

Never seen one taken down so I figured there was just something I was missing, ahah. Today I learned!

Great photos CTroyMathis.

This building completes a nice set of bookends for the west side of Uptown, along with the Union and 17Seventeen. I imagine that some time will pass before anything happens with the surface lots along Field St. Until then, Akard is it.

Agreed. I can't wait to see what it looks like at night once they flip on the LEDs. Curious to see if they'll ever be multicolored or just remain white like the renders.

Also, seeing this complete gives me hope for the Field Street District, since that's another Kaizen project.

Very cool pic, Kingpin. The Link is a good-looking building.

Nice addition to the city's skyline.

Post by **undefinedprocess** » 27 Jul 2021 12:23

Anyone know if the LEDs are lighting up at night yet? Doubt it, but definitely interested to see how it looks at night.

Post by **CTroyMathis** » 27 Jul 2021 12:27

I haven't seen it yet, but, that's just a random anecdotal. I could've simply missed it. I forgot that was going to be a thing for the building actually.
