Even if the only banking you keep up lives in your checking account, it\u2019s hard to miss what\u2019s taking shape in Victory Park.<\/p>\n

Goldman Sachs\u2019 800,000 square foot campus is still two years away from opening, but is already seen as the largest symbol of a growing \u201cY\u2019all Street<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson said he, along with Dallas City Manager Kimberly Tolbert, will lead a delegation of business and civic leaders in New York City next week.<\/p>\n

\u201cDallas means business,\u201d Johnson said during a news conference. \u201cEconomic development is a competition.\u201d<\/p>\n

A competition Dallas finds itself in the middle of with other sunbelt cities, like Charlotte and Nashville, according to Donald Shelly at the SMU Cox School of Business.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou just can’t automatically say, \u2018we\u2019re Dallas, come here.\u2019 You’ve got to make your case,\u201d Shelly said.<\/p>\n

The Dallas City Council approved $2.7 million in incentives last summer<\/a> to help convince Scotiabank to open an office in Victory Park.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The city was in competition with Charlotte, long considered the second-largest banking hub, to land the Canadian-based financial services firm.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Scotiabank announced its Dallas office will open next week with support for more than 1000 local jobs.<\/p>\n

The Dallas delegation will be in NYC on February 26-27.\u00a0 Johnson did not field questions at the press conference, but a city update later said each of the nine participants are covering their own expenses for the trip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Even if the only banking you keep up lives in your checking account, it\u2019s hard to miss what\u2019s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":139571,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[7472,1603,9,56,63,65,64],"class_list":{"0":"post-139570","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-city","8":"tag-dallas","9":"tag-finance","10":"tag-new-york","11":"tag-ny","12":"tag-nyc","13":"tag-nyc-headlines","14":"tag-nyc-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139570","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139570"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139570\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/139571"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139570"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139570"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139570"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
