Downtown Dallas is currently undergoing a transition, as dozens of residential conversions and new high rise condos bring more permanent residents to the downtown area. The redeveloped Main Street has recently become more of a place for Dallasites to play after several restaurants, hotels, and residential towers opened their doors along the strip. While it's still a work in progress, Downtown Dallas has the potential to become quite the urban oasis.
The city, along with several non-profit organizations, has recently pushed for the development of the deck park over Spur-366 (Woodall Rodgers Freeway) to create a seamless Uptown/Downtown district, in the hopes that the Uptown real estate market would help further redevelop Downtown. In addition, the Trinity River Corridor is poised to undergo a significant transformation (the Trinity River Project) into a giant urban park. The park is expected to include an equestrian center, lakes, trails and three bridges designed by Santiago Calatrava. With all of these exciting changes on the horizon, Downtown Dallas might just be the next place you decide to live!
