I can't wait to get back to Dallas again. I was out there only 4 months ago and already things are much further along. One Arts Plaza is simply flying.

Oak Lawn complex approved

Developers have gotten preliminary approval to knock down a block of Oak Lawn apartments to make way for a new residential complex.

Winston Capital Corp., which developed the Tribeca condominium complex on Cedar Springs Road at the Dallas North Tollway, is working on the project a couple of blocks away at Hawthorne Avenue.

The developer plans to build about 200 rental units in three- and four-story buildings, according to plans approved recently by the Dallas City Plan Commission.

"The four-story construction will be along Cedar Springs," said Winston Capital principal Stewart A. Bul. "As soon as the City Council approves this, we will go forward with our plans."

The 3.2-acre apartment development would replace the 40-year-old Tecali apartments at 4533 Cedar Springs.

"It's time to clean up the older stuff and bring in something a little more urban and high-density," Mr. Bul said.

Winston Capital replaced older apartments with its Tribeca condo project in 2003. Since then, demand for high-end apartments has soared. "Right now, we like what we are seeing in the rental market," Mr. Bul said

The area of Oak Lawn northwest of the tollway is starting to redevelop with major apartment complexes planned by FirstWorthing Corp. and Alliance Communities.

Winston Capital's developments include both single-family lot construction and high-density housing. The builder is working on plans for a high-rise condominium complex in Uptown.

Found an interesting site on the "future of high-rise living." Some group in Austin, TX. Looks interesting, but hard to believe. 40% savings in cost and half the time. Says they have a project for Dallas. Sent an email, but haven't heard back yet.

Hillwood Reels In House of Blues

DALLAS-After three years of trying to land the deal, Hillwood has secured a 60,000-sf, long-term lease with House of Blues. If the plan stays on track, the Los Angeles-based operator will open doors on its first music hall in Texas by the end of this year or early 2007 in the historic White Swan Building.

"We always wanted House of Blues to do a venue here," says Jonas Woods, president of Hillwood Capital. "But, it wasn't until they saw all the momentum at Victory that they were ready to make a commitment." Plans stalled to include House of Blues in Victory's West Plaza building, but talks picked up again about six months ago with HOB Entertainment Inc.

Woods says the White Swan Building at 2200 N. Lamar St. is now jointly owned by Hillwood and Tomlinson-Leis Corp. He tells GlobeSt.com that $25 million will be invested into an adaptive reuse of the building, which rose in stages between 1900 and 1924 and is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Woods says construction will begin by midyear. The façade will be maintained and the interior gutted to make way for a 200-seat restaurant, 1,600- to 1,800-seat live music hall, private club and Green Room, the traditional hang-out for artists waiting to take the stage. "There isn't any venue in Dallas that delivers live music in an environment like this," Woods says.

HOB simultaneously was negotiating with Hillwood and a development partnership in Houston for 43,000 sf in the $200-million Houston Pavilions, a 700,000-sf mixed-use project in the CBD, but that project won't be ready to open until fourth-quarter 2007. Until now, HOB and Hillwood weren't discussing the deal for Dallas, but it's time to put out the word now that plans have been submitted at city hall. The Victory win makes Dallas the 12th city in the operator's concert circuit.

I'd be interested to see if they actually have any projects under construction right now.

EDIT: Never mind. Hadn't yet finished the video. I guess they do not have anything going on or starting in the immediate future. It will be interesting to see if anything comes of this group.
