You can also go to the observation deck in Reunion Tower. It is free if you go to lounge/bar. (otherwise it is $2)

Just ride the light rail south from the Republic Center to Union Station and follow the signs to Reunion Tower. (it is part of the Hyatt Hotel)

Recent set of renderings for the Stoneleigh Court Hotel & Res. Tower

Refresher: this will be about a block away from the 31-story 'The Azure' tower.

Update on the Hanover mixed-use tower at McKinney & N. Saint Paul

Hanover's project is right next to several mid-rise and high-rise projects u/c or nearly u/c. Arguably amongst the most prime real estate in Upstate Texas. They are seeking a height variance to allow 110' on top of the current cap of 240'. This address is technically 1900-1920 McKinney.

Here is a footprint image and some massing visuals with and without approved height variance:

Tower on way up at Victory
Residential high-rise is planned for '07, will have 252 apartments

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcont...2.20b9f05.html

12:00 AM CDT on Tuesday, October 25, 2005
By STEVE BROWN / The Dallas Morning News

Work is under way on the next tower at Victory, and developers hope to have the residential high-rise ready by the spring of 2007.

Called Cirque, the 28-story tower is being developed by Houston-based Hanover Co. Hanover also built the Ashford apartment tower across the street from the Crescent.

Hanover calls the new building a "sky sculpture," with a curving glass and masonry exterior. The building was designed by architects Gromatzky Dupree & Associates.

The building is located just east of American Airlines Center at 2500 N. Houston St.

Cirque will have 252 apartments averaging 1,200 square feet. Rents in the building will average about $2,500 a month.

"Select units will feature private terraces and multiple balconies," said Hanover spokesman Stuart Rosenberg. "Additional highlights will include three two-story penthouse units; clubhouse with business center, conference room, surround-sound theatre, Internet cafe coffee bar and demonstration kitchen."

On the seventh floor, the building will have an "aqua lounge," and a fitness center, tennis court and resort-style pool.

There will be 10,000 square feet of retail space on the ground floor.

Cirque is the fifth residential building under construction at Victory.

The first homes – condos in the W Dallas Victory Hotel & Residences – will open in May.

Cityplace to sprout residential towers


Courtesy Image


By Steve Brown


Developers are planning two residential towers for Dallas' Cityplace project.

Fairfield Residential and Cityplace Co. will build a 20-story building at McKinney Avenue and Blackburn Street, across the street from the popular West Village complex. WDG Habib Architecture designed the masonry, metal and glass tower, which will have retail space on the lower floors.

Next door, between Cityplace West Boulevard and Blackburn, Trammell Crow Residential and Cityplace Co. will build another 20-story condominium building with retail and office space. Good, Fulton & Farrell designed this tower.
