Sic'EmBears Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 New Dallas condo development in Cedars gets nearly $10M to kick off project The 62-unit project, called Destination Residences, will span a multi-story condominium project in the up-and-coming urban neighborhood just south of downtown Dallas. The development team plans to use an existing parking garage on the site that will help them "move quickly," on building the multi-story condo building, Laub said. "This isn't a proven market," he said. "There are not a lot of condo products down there and this is an untapped market for this type of product — particularly at the price point they plan to deliver them at."

Sic'EmBears Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Developer Bill Cawley hits it into high gear with his next Tollway office building Dallas developer Bill Cawley has begun his next office building along the Dallas North Tollway, between Belt Line Road and Spring Valley Road, which will bring the new home for Occidental Petroleum Corp. (NYSE: OXY) to fruition. Oxy's chemical division signed a lease for roughly half the building — or 120,000 square feet of office space — in a long-term deal. The remainder of the building will be put on the market. The six-story, 240,000-square-foot building, known as Fourteen 555, sits at 14555 Dallas Parkway in Addison. "Like Tollway Center and Knoll Trail Plaza, Fourteen 555 features a state-of-the-art fitness center, conference center and our signature rooftop terrace," said Cawley, CEO of Dallas-based Cawley Partners, in a statement. "However, all of the amenities for Fourteen 555 will be located in a separate amenity building called The Hub, which will also feature a large courtyard," he added. "Tenants and their employees look for walkability in the new office space." Construction is slated for completion in September 2018.

Sic'EmBears Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Modern-style condo mid-rise on the books for Dallas' White Rock Lake neighborhood A Dallas-based development group, NBKW Partners LLC, plans to build a new seven-story condominium residence that will bring up to 100 new single-family homes to Dallas' White Rock Lake neighborhood. The condominium, called The Drake at White Rock, could appeal to first-time buyers, empty nesters and residents attracted to the natural beauty of White Rock Lake, said Al Coker, owner of Al Coker & Associates, who is marketing the development. The condo homes will be priced from $290,000 to $750,000 based on the size of the home and its finishes. The project will include one-, two- and three-bedroom options with expansive balconies and a number of community amenities.

KinkaidAlum Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I went to see Morrissey in Dallas. I'm completely jealous that the Majestic Theatre still stands and has been turned into a great smaller concert venue. Yeah, we've got whatever it's called now in Bayou Place and the HOB but this is different. I stayed at The Joule and walked to and from the venue. Passing by the old Neiman Marcus also made me jelly. Downtown looked great (well, the 6 blocks I explored before heading out to Deep Ellum to visit my friend's new brick and mortar Easy Slider joint. She's killing it after years in the food truck biz. I chose going to the Dallas show for this type of experience after Morrissey's concert in Houston was moved from White Oak to freaking Sugar Land. Dallas has a lot of great things going on. So does Houston. Grow up or get off of this thread, native onion. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchFan Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) I particularly like the design of AMLI's building. I think maybe part of that is because it draws a bit of attention away from Pei's design next door, which always struck me as being somewhat "wrong" in the massing of shapes. I generally like his work a lot -- not so much the brutalist stuff, but the things he did after that. Edited June 11, 2017 by ArchFan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strickn Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 My understanding is that Henry Cobb designed Allied Bank Tower to play off of its older brother Allied Bank Plaza in Houston. It's a nice link. Both buildings also make more sense in plan view. Where Allied Bank Plaza (1000 Louisiana, Wells Fargo Plaza) is like two quarter-circles offset diagonally, so too Allied Bank Tower at Fountain Place is a square with a parallelogram inscribed diagonally across it. The tower's peak ingeniously splits the parallelogram in half. The angles of the resulting secondary triangles are a little off visually when viewed in section, but who's counting? The bluish glass has become so imitated in Texas buildings since that it unfortunately no longer obviously links the two sibling towers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
