    Steve Brown

    Oh absolutely, I get it. I understand why anyone would build there over here. I'm just jealous I suppose.

    I live in DFW and while all of this new development and redevelopment is "great", there are VAST areas of the metroplex that are very tired, old, rundown, and lacking investment. So while all of this development is great, the impact is not spatially felt across the entire metroplex because of the sheer size of the region.

    Just as with NYC and LA, a handful of new projects sprinkled into a large city won't have a noticeable impact to the average person.

    However, larger projects such as Hudson Yards and Oceanwide Plaza have more of a noticeable impact. The same can be said about McKinney & Olive, Legacy West, The Gate, The Star and Forum at Wade Park.

    I live down here as well, and Geographer's point is correct. A lot of this development is taking place in the burbs and hinterlands, especially Plano, and a few select areas in Dallas like Uptown.

    That is not to say there isn't a lot of development around, but respects to the actual city of Dallas, there are plenty of places that are pretty dormant. Activity in South Dallas and especially along the Trinity River is moving at a snails pace, despite millions being thrown at both.

    Candace Carlisle
    March 16, 2016



    Construction has begun on a new 22-story luxury residential tower in the Knox Henderson neighborhood in Dallas, which will bring 183 luxury residential homes and penthouses to this part of Dallas.

    The soon-to-be developed high-rise — called The McKenzie — at the corner of Harvard Avenue and Tracy Street will be constructed by Dallas-based StreetLights Residential and equity partner Tricon Capital Group Inc. in an architectural style reminiscent of a historic luxury hotel.
    Looney Ricks Kiss Architects is the project architect. Linda Tycher & Associates is the landscape architect. Waldrop + Nichols Studio is the interior designer.

    The high-rise will have a valet, concierge and a 24-hour doorman. Construction is slated for completion in early 2018.

    There is more to it than that man. All of North Dallas is booming and it is beginning to spill into Oklahoma. Deep Ellum is thriving, Downtown Dallas is starting to heat up, the areas around Downtown Dallas are starting to see new proposals, Fort Worth is seeing development(nothing spectacular but still), Arlington, East Dallas, Oak Cliff, and while I haven't been down there much, I've heard a lot of areas in South Dallas are seeing some pretty nice developments going in.

    So why is the southern side of Dallas not being built up as much a the north side? I don't know much about Big D, is it an older part, less monied area?

    Yes and yes.

    Downtown Dallas is located north of the Trinity River.

    Naturally, urban growth spread north as there was no geographical barrier.

    The Trinity River prohibited South Dallas from achieving the same amount of growth Turtle Creek, Highland Park, Oak Lawn, East Dallas etc. were experiencing.

    Ethos Group leases all of office space in new Irving Music Factory project
    Steve Brown
    March 21, 2016



    Developers of a mixed-use entertainment complex that’s under construction in Las Colinas said they have leased all the office space in the project to a single tenant.

    ARK Group – which is building the Music Factory complex on State Highway 114 near Northwest Highway – said that Irving-based Ethos Group has leased 100,000 square feet in the office building portion of its development.
    The company plans to move into the Music Factory office building late next year.
    “Our primary motivation for leasing was to be in an environment that would allow our associates, clients and visitors to walk to entertainment venues.”
    Scheduled to open next year, the Music Factory includes an eight-screen Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, 8,000-seat Live Nation indoor/outdoor concert hall, other entertainment venues, restaurants and specialty eateries.

    Steve Brown
    March 21, 2016



    The 224-unit development planned for a vacant block will provide affordable workforce housing in one of North Texas’ fastest growing communities.

    “It will be a mixed-income community, and a little over half of it will be affordable based on what the resident makes,” said Jean Brown with the Plano Housing Corp., which is developing the 5.6-acre project. “It will be a transit-oriented development – it’s less than half a mile from the 15th Street DART station.”
    The Plano Housing Corp. is working on a second development a few blocks away near City Hall.

    “We will be doing 21 townhouses that are for sale, with seven for low- and moderate-income residents,” Brown said.
