The first of three new Urby luxury high-rise towers added to Dallas’ skyline has opened its doors for renters.
Dallas Urby is a 27-story luxury high-rise located in the heart of Dallas’ Design District. The property includes a landscaped courtyard with a swimming pool, a fitness center, a neighborhood café, a library, and a dog park.
The newly-opened high-rise is the first and tallest tower developer Urby plans to build on the 4-acre site at Hi Line Drive near Turtle Creek Boulevard. The ready-to-rent tower includes 383 luxury rental units with a starting price of $2,200 monthly.
The three-tower project has been under development for almost two years. Once construction on the final two towers is complete, the high-rise apartment will have a total of 900 apartments, according to project plans.
“We look forward to welcoming our first residents this month and introducing them to our thoughtful design, engaging experiences, and community connection,” said David Barry, president and CEO of Urby.
Urby is a partnership between developer Barry and Brookfield Properties. It is the first development project for the Urby-Brookfield Properties collaboration outside the New York City metropolitan area.
The Dallas Urby tower was partly designed in part by Amsterdam-based architect Concrete. Dallas-based architect 5G Studio Collaborative and Belgium-based landscape-and-architecture firm Bureau Bas Smets also contributed to the design.
Other cities hosting Urby developments include New York City and Stamford, Connecticut. Additional projects are underway in Philadelphia, Miami, and Washington, D.C.
A percentage of rent money should go towards building housing for homeless who actually want to be off the streets and will use the home responsibly. The ones who are okay with living under bridges and in tents are welcome to continue to do so.
