New renderings for two Trinity Groves towers from San Francisco-based Gensler.

The taller tower is most likely proposed as office. The shorter, condo/hospitality.

Most projects are an evolution of their initial rendering.

My guess is the developer behind this is scouting for tenants.

Construction begins at $173 million Las Colinas entertainment center
Eline de Bruijn
June 24, 2016



Quote:
Irving’s nine-year effort to develop an entertainment center is finally showing signs of life, with two cranes towering over the $173 million project site along State Highway 114 near Northwest Highway.
Quote:
“You’re going to see it grow daily now,” said Noah Lazes, president of Ark Group development.
Quote:
“People will truly be able to work, live and play in Las Colinas,” said Lazes, who founded Ark with his father, Rick Lazes.
Quote:
Rainy weather and seesaw politics slowed the start of the project, but the center is on track for a late summer 2017 opening, Noah Lazes said.
Quote:
The Music Factory will include a LiveNation concert venue that will seat 7,000, and a dining movie theater by Alamo Drafthouse.

Leases are full for the 100,000-square-foot office tower, while leases for beverage and food spaces are at 90 percent, Noah said.
Quote:
Former City Council member and developer consultant Sharon Barbosa-Crain said three hotels are in the process of trying to build near the site.

I think post #4267 by Sic'EmBears is great. Really illustrates the amount of activity.

All of these lots being developed really help expand the CBD. There's a nice mix too. Mix of mid rises intermingling with towers. The expansive nature of it as opposed to just having a couple of blocks close up gives it a grandiose feeling.

It's really nice to see all of the new projects going up within the Dallas core. Plus there is still Trinity Groves and Bishop Arts Districts to the west, The Cedars to the south, and Deep Ellum to the east. The progress that has been made in the past 10 years or so is truly astounding as can be seen by this aerial. Central Dallas still has tons of improvements that can be made but we have come a long way. Thus it will interesting to see how this view will change in the next 10 or so years.

4-hotel complex in the works in $1 billion Frisco Station project
Steve Brown
June 28, 2016



Quote:
A new Frisco development has landed what developers are calling a "hotel campus" with four different brands and 600 rooms.

The planned hotel complex will be part of the $1 billion Frisco Station project at the Dallas North Tollway and Warren Parkway.

The 242-acre mixed-use development wraps around the Dallas Cowboys' new Star headquarters complex.
Quote:
The hotel campus will be the first phase of a mixed-use retail, office and entertainment center Frisco Station is calling The Hub.

"It not only energizes our whole mixed-use program but it also plays very well off what is happening next door at the Star," said Hillwood Properties president Mike Berry.

"This project at Frisco Station will deliver a wide variety of new hotel rooms."
Quote:
The planned hotel complex will include a Marriott AC Hotel and Residence Inn, and a Canopy Hotel by Hilton and Hyatt Place Hotels.
Quote:
Construction will start on three hotels -- the AC, Residence and Canopy -- in January. A groundbreaking for the Hyatt Place will be later.
Quote:
"It's starting to look like a true urban zone," he said. "I haven't seen a landscape transformed like that in a long time."

Along with more than 2 million square feet of office buildings, plans for Frisco Station include more than 2,000 apartments and homes, shops, restaurants and medical buildings.

Can little apartments fit urban Big D lifestyle? Historic hotel hopes so
Steve Brown
June 30, 2016



Quote:
The Ambassador opened in 1905 as the Majestic Hotel, and was touted as the city's "first suburban luxury hotel."
Quote:
The 111-year-old Ambassador Hotel just south of downtown Dallas was bought last year by a partnership headed by local real estate developer and investor Jim Lake Jr.

Lake plans to convert the one-time luxury hotel overlooking the downtown skyline into about 100 apartments that range from 340 to 650 square feet in size. The average will be less than 500 square feet.
Quote:
The average new apartment being constructed in North Texas runs about 965 square feet, according to the latest numbers from analyst MPF Research.

And those new apartments have an average citywide rent of almost $1,450 a month.

Lake said his apartments in the Ambassador Hotel will start at less than $1,000.

"It's a more affordable product than what you see in Uptown," said architect David Farrell, who is working with Lake to redo the six-story hotel building.

Most of the apartments will fit inside the building's original hotel rooms, with a few expansions for kitchens.
Quote:
Lake said part of the ground floor of the Ambassador -- where many of the original lobby features survive -- will be used for restaurant, retail and event space.

He's looking at a rooftop deck and a swimming pool on the ground floor.

Start of lakeside project in popular Cypress Waters brings offices, apartments, retail
Steve Brown
July 7, 2016



Quote:
The project — called The Sound — is the most ambitious yet in Billingsley Co.'s 1,000-acre Cypress Waters community.

A new office building, apartments and retail will be included in the first phase of the lakeside development north of LBJ Freeway near Belt Line Road.
Quote:
The five-story, 250,000-square-foot office building was designed by architect Gensler with glass, natural wood and stone exteriors.

Built on the south shore of 360-acre North Lake, the speculative office building will have outdoor arcades, seating areas and a dining area.

The building at 3100 Olympus Blvd. is one of a handful of office projects planned surrounding the water.

Dallas-based restaurant chain Brinker International is considering another office building planned for the lakeside complex as a potential headquarters location.

The first phase of construction will also include about 500 apartments and several retail buildings facing the water.
Quote:
Billingsley Co. is building a 217,000-square-foot speculative office building at 9111 Cypress Waters Blvd. that has several large lease proposals. Because of the success of that new building, the developer is ready to start work on The Sound project.

"We feel good about starting the next spec building," Billingsley said.

She said the first Sound office building, apartments and retail should be open by early 2018.

It's just east of where Signet Jewelers-Zale will have its new regional office with two buildings on the lake.

"Three years from now, we would hope to have four or five office buildings here, retail and 1,000-plus apartments on the lake," Billingsley said.

2000 Ross Avenue / Trammell Crow Center renovation update:
* Renderings were originally found and posted by myself on another forum

City-block project on Ross Avenue on track to get underway soon in downtown Dallas
Candace Carlisle
July 7, 2016



Quote:
A city-block development project meant to transform downtown Dallas' Ross Avenue adjacent to Trammell Crow Center is on track to get underway by early 2017, with plans to unveil the design of an upscale boutique hotel, ground-floor retail and an apartment tower this fall.
Quote:
Stream Realty is the master developer of the project on behalf of the ownership group 2000 Ross Avenue LP out of New York, which is a fund advised by JP Morgan Chase.

By developing 32,000 square feet of new space for restaurants and retailers, March said there's an opportunity to transform the Ross Avenue corridor. Plans for the ground-up development includes a 200-key upscale boutique hotel and a 350-unit apartment tower with each tower sitting on a podium of 2,600-stall parking garage and the retail space.

The hotel developer and residential developer have yet to be named, with an official announcement slated for this fall. HOK is the architect designing the ground-up project on the 2.6-acre tract.

The new mixed-use development is in the design process and is being dual-tracked with the renovations at Trammell Crow Center, a 1.2-million-square-foot office tower. Upon completion, Trammell Crow Center will have 10,000 square feet of added retail space to the ground floor of the building.

"This will be a real comprehensive renovation of Trammell Crow Center, which has never been altered in a meaningful way since its original design in the 1980s," March told me. "We want to do something there and expect it to be a dramatic design intervention."

Construction on the dual-tracked projects — the tower renovation and ground-up development — is expected to begin in early 2017.

Dallas-based Retail Street Advisors' Aaron Stephenson and John Giesler have already begun marketing the retail space to potential tenants.

^^^Really good to hear this is still on track but I've noticed that the language in the article makes it seem like they are planning to redesign this from the most recent renderings released or it may just be that they did not recognize that preliminary renderings were already released. It will be interesting to find out.
