One of Dallas\u2019 most exclusive office campuses will get even bigger. Old Parkland<\/a> is expanding.<\/p>\n

The Dallas City\u00a0Council approved a request from developer Crow Holdings to raise the maximum allowable height at the 2\u00bd-acre site bounded by Fairmount Street, Shelby Avenue, Reagan Street and Maple Avenue during its Tuesday meeting. Early plans call for 300,000 square feet of new space and multiple buildings. It\u2019s the second phase of Old Parkland East.<\/p>\n

Cody Armbrister, senior managing director of Crow Holdings Development\u2019s office sector,\u00a0 outlined the project<\/a> during a May meeting with the Oak Lawn Committee. Crow Holdings plans to build a 10-story tower behind two four-story buildings. The 10-story building also includes two companion towers of seven stories,\u00a0Armbrister said. The project\u2019s highest point will be the spire at the top of the tallest tower \u2014\u00a0290 feet. The phase will also include four levels of below-grade parking.<\/p>\n

The project\u2019s signature building will be called Tholos, a marble dome that will include statues and artwork celebrating Western civilization. A tholos is a Greco-Roman building type. It is a round structure with a circular wall and roof. One notable example: A\u00a0tholos sits atop the U.S. Capitol\u2019s cast iron dome.<\/p>\n

Armbrister previously told The Dallas Morning News that he hopes the firm can start the project as soon as early fall. The project could finish in early 2029. The city planning and zoning commission\u00a0recommended approval of the project in July.<\/p>\n

The Old Parkland campus surrounds the original 1913 Parkland Hospital building<\/a>, which Crow Holdings began restoring roughly two decades ago for its headquarters. The initial 9\u00bd acres feature restored and newly constructed Jeffersonian-style office buildings.<\/p>\n

In 2022, Crow Holdings\u00a0expanded across the road with\u00a0Old Parkland East, an eight-story, 255,000-square-foot building that replaced small restaurant buildings and apartments on the block between Maple Avenue and Fairmount Street.<\/p>\n

The campus is home to some of Dallas\u2019 most influential investment firms<\/a>, family offices and other related firms. Tenants include the New York Stock Exchange Texas, which occupies the top floor of the property\u2019s Resolute Tower.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor decades, Old Parkland has served as an influential gathering place for prominent business leaders and civic voices to exchange ideas and engage on impactful issues shaping Dallas and beyond,\u201d Armbrister said in a statement. \u201cWe\u2019re excited about the opportunity to continue building on that legacy through our expansion of the East campus.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of Dallas\u2019 most exclusive office campuses will get even bigger.
