  1. I think that the residential tower you mention in the first few sentences is a representation of the residential tower already built just to the east of the site at Gulford and McCree. Google says that it's called Dominion Post Oak. Could be wrong though!
  2. I agree. The project would be fantastic if it was built but the entire process has been so messy and all over the place now that I feel like it won't happen. Fingers crossed though! The new redesign looks good too but I liked the one before it better.
  3. Wow that's great! I love The Rustic in Uptown Dallas and it's always super busy, great atmosphere with the live music. Looking forward to it!
  4. I actually think that a grocer could work in that amount of square footage. Looking at Dallas for examples, the Whole Foods off McKinney Avenue in Uptown if 44k SF so that probably wouldn't work, but the Trader Joe's off Cole Avenue in the Knox area is only around 15k SF. So Trader Joe's could work here for sure! Or even a smaller grocer that carries more specialty items like Dean & DeLuca or Royal Blue from Austin.
  5. I don't know if the same is true in real life, but from the looks of the pictures this building is massive!
  6. Yeah Barneys actually opened up twice at NorthPark Center, once in the 1990s and again in 2006-2012. Houston had a Co-Op at the Galleria that closed in 2010. Dallas shoppers tend to stay pretty loyal to Neiman Marcus (which has 4 DFW locations) and other established stores in the area like Forty Five Ten and Stanley Korshak, which doesn't leave much more room for other luxury department stores. Barney's would be great for River Oaks District but if a Co-Op store couldn't last, I don't think that the full line will either unfortunately.
  7. The tower looks great and hopefully it comes to fruition soon! As for the continued densification of the Galleria, I could see a development on the parking lot north of Neiman Marcus to the east of the Jewel Box building as a tower. It could have a parking garage on the bottom levels to make up for lost parking and then house something on top of it. It would make a nice main entrance to the building with the jewel box in the middle, the two office towers in front, and a tower with retail on the left.
  8. Does this project have retail? If so do we know the square footage? Sorry, I'm sure it's been mentioned somewhere but don't feel like scrolling through 98 pages haha!

  10. Really wish that the apartment units in this building were condominiums. Such a huge project in a great location with a limited number of units would have probably made them desirable and easy to sell!
  11. ^^ Exactly. While I'm all for this development and hope that it works out, I just can't see someone paying $500k for an 800 SF unit when you can pay $450k for a 900 SF unit at the Marlowe in a far more desirable location. If there were units priced at $120k then you're point would be valid, but based on the prices we have seen so far, there are not going to be units priced that low.
  12. ^ I agree actually. Maybe it's just the pictures, but the store seems tiny for what's supposed to be a big flagship (I know the square footage is a lot, but the exterior doesn't reflect that) and architecturally boring. Oh well, at least it's a new store and the Webster looks nice!
