I don't get this one - 14 floors of parking and 10 floors of office space.

GLASS!!! Yes, there is glass on the lowest office floor. It appears about 8 floor-high panes were mounted on the Woodall Rodgers side of the building in the last day or two.

Perhaps the garage is so large because they anticipate revenue from the Arts District and Klyde Warren Park attendees looking for parking.

Have you been to Dallas before? They want good parking ratios to stay above the competition for tenants. I do wonder about public parking since it has been declared a international emergency of global proportions by the Klyde Warren management.

Unless they are planning on opening their parking garage to public use, it makes no practical sense to have such a large parking garage for just the building tenants. A four story parking garage would serve their tenants adequately. And yes, I live and am from Dallas. Family has been in Dallas since 1843.

The current commercial office space parking standard is running at about 3 spaces for every 1,000 square feet. The parking being built in 1900 Pearl allows them to offer exactly that ratio of parking. The parking portion of the building is so large for the same reason that massive parking structures are being added to the Trammel Crow Center, Fountain Place, Bank of America Plaza and Harwood Center.

I am not sure if it is just me, but it seems like such a loss that we need to dedicate such a ridiculous amount of space to parking. Just from a visual standpoint it seems pathetic that at such an incredibly prime location as this one, half of a building whose view is directly on KWP is dedicated to car parking...

edit: It almost seems as if as a city we need to ween people off the addiction of being able to park immediately in front of wherever it is that they need to go.

--> To elaborate even further. I lived and worked in downtown Dallas for 2 years which allowed me to analyze the trends of some of my coworkers. Who would drive 2 miles from their apartment in uptown, expect parking at directly at the lot by Acension coffee, drive to Chase Tower for work, drive to Monkey King Noodle for lunch, and then drive to Bishop Arts for dinner. It seems pathetic the amount of parking that a single resident in Dallas demands. The incredible amount of wasted space in this city is astounding.

Maybe the additional parking is for revenue from Arts District and Klyde Warren visitors. That could allow more people from the far out burbs to be able to drive in and spend money in Dallas if they have good parking options close by.

Before too long people will be able to drop themselves off in front of wherever they want to go and send the car to park on its own. How we get around is advancing very quickly and will alter transportation faster than most realize and probably not as one might expect.

Isn't this mentality partly what lead to Downtown's decline. I realize there were many other factors that contributed to this, but having our urban core catering to the far out burbs by making massive freeways that cut through the city and ample parking was a big part of the problem that we are trying to remedy right now.

Since the garage is already built, I won't stress over it too much, but it's not that hard to park at West Village or the Quadrangle and take the trolley to KWP, or perhaps park at one of the DART park and ride stations, to the rail to Pearl/Arts District then walk to the park. Or park at many of the existing pay garages in Downtown.

Why is it that everyone seems so shocked by a garage being added in the base. In Chicago either all or most new buildings have garages and even if they don't they usually have contracts with garages in other buildings because most people only ride the train for convenience and to save money. If someone can afford it the most preferred method of getting around in Chicago is by the car. In Chicago like here no one rides the train or buses to be "urban" or cool but rather to get around. That being said why would a developer go out of there way to finance a high rise costing millions without providing parking, because even though we may like it I doubt the tenants would.

I used to live near Chicago and observed the same thing. Dallas isn't doing anything that other large cities aren't doing. The parking garages in downtown Chicago are abundant and quite large and they have been for a very long time. There is just no way to get around the fact that buildings need garage space and there is also no way to build enough commuter options to get away from that. Most of the population in DFW lives far enough away from a train or a bus or trolley that is just isn't an option.

I live right next to the St. Paul rail station, and I still almost never ride (except to the State Fair).

Anywhere I want to go that isn't within walking distance is two or three stops away. But $5 each way for two people? That's the price of an Uber. Or I can drive and walk a few blocks. I have no economic incentive to ride the train.

DART should consider incentivizing urban riders to ditch the car by making short trips cheaper than other, more convenient alternatives. Until then, if it's outside of walking distance, why wouldn't I drive?

Everything inside the loop, plus Victory, Deep Ellum, Cedars, and possibly City Place should be considered local streetcar and be either free or very reduced. Fares checks aren't done in these areas anyway, so it's really a non-functional change for DART. I doubt any revenue will be lost as it's extremely unlikely anybody is currently paying for such trips. It would boost ridership, reduce traffic/parking, and bring a little life to the streets though...

You guys are missing a key issue: parking requirements.

I certainly agree that even without parking requirements, developers would still provide a lot of parking in Dallas buildings because of tenant demand. But I bet there'd be less. The precise 3.0/1000 ratio of 1900 Pearl screams "meeting zoning requirements." People don't bemoan the extreme amount of parking in these buildings to be hip, they do it because each additional floor that has to be dedicated to parking represents fewer people living and working in Dallas and contributing to the vitality and tax base of the city.

Chicago isn't a good example that large parking garages will continue to be built no matter what, btw. Yes, there are parking garages in the Loop, but a) they continue to be redeveloped (as opposed to built more of like at Fountain Place), and b) they serve like 5x more office space.

New office buildings have little to no parking: this one (http://chicago.curbed.com/2017/1/18/143 ... h-building) has only 150 spaces for 1.35mil sf of office (i.e. only 0.1/1000), for instance. And for residential, here's a project in a residential neighborhood 6 mi out that has only 29 spaces for 147 units (http://chicago.curbed.com/2017/1/30/144 ... n-sheridan).

That would be smart and make sense, so why would DART ever do that? That is totally contrary to their current way of thinking and operating. Our transit system is built to get suburban people into and out of the city as quickly as possible, and nothing more. Otherwise they would not be taking a decade to redo the bus system that the folks inside the city would be more likely to utilize. The whole DART board needs to be fired and replaced with folks that actually ride the system.

I see what your saying but I used Chicago as an example simply to show that large urban areas exist with the presence of many parking garages and that this is not a true hindrance to urbanizing central Dallas (so long as the building still interacts with the street) and nothing more. Now in terms of zoning requirements I agree that there should be a much lower parking requirements, but Dallas still needs a couple of decades to really gain the same type of density that Chicago has which would warrant more people to utilize DART. Long story short this is not a bad urban design even with a higher parking ratio.

In my opinion, most buildings in a downtown area are essentially 'opaque' and off limits once you are past the first floor (if you can even get that far) as a general member of the public, so as long as they have a decent street presence at the first floor, the rest can be office, residential, or parking, or factory, or even something unsavory like a jail and it makes no difference.

As long as the building constructed gets rid of ground-level parking lots and the city doesn't widen streets to accommodate cars, then people can drive if they wish and commercial buildings can build parking as high as they wish.

When are they going to start covering the garage portion with glass? That part of the tower is ugly as hell.
