Last Wednesday, the Dallas City Council approved a $49M subsidy for the West End Lofts, a $103.2M mixed-income housing development that will transform the historic Emerson-Brantingham Building and adjacent parking structure. This project will bring 154 residential units, ground-floor retail, and a public plaza to the heart of the West End. This development is a major step forward in enhancing Downtown’s vibrancy and accessibility, blending historic preservation with modern urban living. We can’t wait to see the impact this will have on our growing Downtown community - especially in the historic area of the West End!

Downtown Dallas Gears Up for the 2026 FIFA World Cup! 🌟 Last week, the Dallas City Council unanimously approved $15M in upgrades to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas, preparing it to host the International Broadcast Center for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This investment is expected to generate an estimated $2B economic impact for Dallas-Fort Worth through hotel bookings and per diem spending. A huge thank you to the KBHCCD project team, led by Rosa Clipper Fleming, and the Dallas Sports Commission, led by Monica Paul, for securing this game-changing opportunity. Special thanks to Council Members Chad West and Jesse Moreno for highlighting the needs for public safety, pedestrian infrastructure, and connectivity as we prepare for this global event. 2026 will be here before we know it, and this is a tremendous win for Downtown! #DowntownDallas #FIFAWorldCup2026 #EconomicImpact #myDTD

Affordability, growth, and economic diversity continue to lure new residents and businesses to North Texas. Given the region’s size and strong demographics, the market is attracting more than its share of commercial real estate investors, too. It’s a trend that’s expected to continue; ULI and PwC just named Dallas the nation’s top market to watch for 2025 in their influential Emerging Trends in Real Estate report. One area for investment that’s gaining steam in Dallas is office conversions. With more than 5 million square feet of vacant space either being transformed or in the planning stages, it’s one of the most active markets in the country. The projects are concentrated downtown, says Blake Shipley, managing director for JLL. Jennifer Scripps, president and CEO of Downtown Dallas, Inc., says the city has been a pioneer; by the time other cities were looking at conversions to adjust to post-pandemic changes in office space demand, Dallas had already seen close to 40 conversions. The story began two decades ago, she says, when just a few hundred people lived downtown. “We had a lot of buildings in the early 2000s that were prime candidates for conversion,” Scripps says. “They were architecturally beautiful buildings but had become functionally obsolete as office buildings.” A handful of developers took advantage of historic tax credits and other incentives to tackle conversion products. Early pioneers transformed the Dallas Power and Light building and the Magnolia building into residential and hotel uses. Among the biggest recent projects is The National—formerly the First National Bank Tower—which reopened during the pandemic after being shuttered since 2010. The 52-story, 1.5 million-square-foot building is now a vertical mixed-use project that includes luxury apartments, restaurants, retail, and office. It was redeveloped by Todd Interests, a leader in the adaptive reuse and conversion space. Another project that stands as an example of a successful conversion is Santander Tower (formerly Thanksgiving Tower). Multifamily expert Katy Slade got to know the ins and outs of the building, owned by Jonas Woods, when her firm, Mintwood Real Estate, converted the top two floors of the building into hotel space, now part of Mint House, which has properties across the country. Working with WDG Architecture, Slade and her team created furnished units designed for corporate use, long-term stays, and group events. The project’s success served as a prelude to a new multifamily project within Santander Tower called Peridot. Once again, WDG served as the architect; Dallas-based SWOON, the studio oversaw branding and interior design. Floors 18-25, 32-34, and 37-39 now house apartment units with floorplans up to 1,557 square feet. Amenities include a fitness center, Pilates studio, saunas, the city’s first indoor pickleball court, game lounge, pool and deck, resident lounge, and more.
