Two neighborhoods that abut the Downtown Dallas Central Business District have been disconnected for years by derelict blocks and buildings. The East Quarter Mixed-Use development establishes a walkable retail, dining, and entertainment connection between the thriving Deep Ellum Farmer’s Market and highly programmed Arts District. The project included the preservation of two historic buildings and the introduction of a dog park and new bike lanes, prioritizing non-vehicular means of transit. The project also features a luxurious eighth-floor amenity deck that features singular views of Dallas. City residents and visitors can now enjoy these two thriving neighborhoods as part of a continuum of their outdoor experience Downtown.
