Two new towers are slated to hit the Dallas Design District, with construction set to begin in 2026.
Dallas-based HN Capital Partners and New York-based McCourt Partners have teamed up to develop Hi Line Square at the corner of Oak Lawn Avenue and I-35E. The project will see the construction of a 17-story office tower, a 30-story residential building, and 45,000 square feet of high-end retail, dining, and design showrooms.
“What we’re doing is trying to respond in a thoughtful manner to how we think the Design District ought to be developed… The project aims to create a high-quality, mixed-use development that is responsive to urban design and inclusive to the design industry,” HN Capital founder and Managing Partner Vipin Nambiar told the Dallas Business Journal.
The 17-story tower will consist of 186,000 square feet of office space and hospitality-inspired amenities, such as a lounge, conference center, and a massive 6,000-square-foot outdoor terrace.
Once it is complete, the much larger 30-story residential tower will include 300 units and boast Dallas’ highest swimming pool. The building will also house retail, showrooms, and dining options on the ground and second floors.
“Hi Line Square is not just a development; it’s a statement,” said Jordan Lang, President at McCourt Partners, in a news release. “This project captures the spirit of the Dallas Design District—a place where culture, commerce, and creativity collide. Our vision is to create a high-end destination that embodies local character while offering a globally inspired, bespoke atmosphere.”
Hi Line Square will be steeped in lush landscaping at full build-out, and residents will have direct access to the Trinity Stand Trail and The Loop.
In 2022, HN Capital and McCourt Partners purchased more than 40 acres in the Desing District from Dunhill Partners. The area includes the site for Hi Line Square and 800,000 square feet of existing leased showroom, retail, and flex office space.
The future development still has a long way to go and remains in the “zoning application stage,” says Nambiar. The project’s completion is slated for 2030.
