Arrow DALLAS | The Union | 355 & 315 FT | 22 & 31 FLOORS

New project in the works for Dallas' Uptown will have office and apartment towers

Quote:
RED Development of Phoenix has teamed up with Dallas’ StreetLights Residential to build the $200 million Akard Place mixed-use project at Field Street and Cedar Springs Road. The 16-story office tower and 20-story residential building will occupy all of the vacant block, which is just north of Woodall Rodgers Freeway and the Perot Museum. It’s one of the last large building sites in the neighborhood.

Groundfloor retail and a large public plaza will connect the two buildings.
“There is a great demand now for restaurants and retail in Uptown,” RED Development managing partner Mike Ebert said. “There is big demand for offices.
“We think the timing for this project is outstanding.”

“The property is right in the middle of everything,” Chesnut said.
He said plans call for about 300 apartments in the residential tower, which will be at the northeast end of the property.

“The real amenity with this project is the plaza – that’s what will draw people to this building,” Chesnut said. “That’s what we have that’s different” from everyone else.” The developers are currently seeking planning approvals for the project and plan to start construction early next year. “We plan to open apartments end of 2016 and office about same time,” Ebert said.
Key Figures:

800,000 total square feet
425,000 square foot Class-A office tower on 16 floors
300-unit apartment tower on 20 floors
75,000 square feet of retail

Three Changes:

1. Renamed The Union
2. Office Tower will be 22 floors
3. Residential Tower will be 20 floors

Quote:
OFFICE
The tallest project component, the 22-story office tower takes advantage of a prominent location on Field Street to claim its place in the skyline.
Quote:
RESIDENTIAL
At the center of the project is an inspired, 20-floor residential building with a comfortable, just-right scale for living.

One project that has seemingly been taking FOREVER to get going.

StreetLights Residential to move Dallas headquarters to The Union
Quote:
Dallas-based StreetLights Residential plans to move its headquarters to The Union, a new mixed-use development at Field Street and Cedar Springs Road near the American Airlines Center.

The headquarters move is expected upon completion of the 22-story office tower in 2017.
Quote:
StreetLights Residential has signed a lease for 18,000 square feet in The Union's new office tower. The Union is planned to include new office, residential and retail space that will total about 800,000 square feet. It is slated to open in 2017.

The mixed-use development will also include a 60,000-square-foot Tom Thumb grocery story on the ground level, as well as a range of restaurants that have yet to be announced.

The project calls for two towers, one 22-story tower containing residential apartments and a 22-story tower containing commercial office. The plans also call for ground-level retail, including a 60,000 square foot Tom Thumb grocery store.

Update:
Quote:
It’s officially a trend: Grocers want to be an elevator ride away from large numbers of Dallas apartment dwellers.

The groundbreaking for The Union office/apartment/retail/restaurant project by Phoenix-based Red Development will be happening in the next few weeks. That means there’s going to be a Tom Thumb grocery store across from Victory Park in Uptown Dallas.
