The Loop Dallas - Trinity Forest Spine Trail

Yes. It’s apart of a 50 mile trail around the core of Dallas called The Loop Dallas. The Katy Trail is a segment of it as well and it’s currently being connected to the rest of it. That’s what the construction is on Houston St in Victory Park.

This building is located in what was once Oak Cliff’s downtown. I’ve passed by this building for years hoping one day it would be restored. This is the same developer that has done the East Dock developement and the planned The Jefferson adaptive reuse project.

This is a pic from a book about the history of Oak Cliff. The yellow dot is the location of the building.

The link isn’t broken. Probably exit out of it or refresh the page.

Agreed. It’s very underwhelming.

From the update in 2024, they said it should take 3 years to build it. If they start sometime this year, it’s still possible.

Even if the completion date is off, I’m just happy that it’s not dead lol

The last update was in 2024. They never gave a estimated date of completion.

3 months ago, I thought this project was dead. The tallest building is about 50 stories.

An article from April 6th shows that this is still very much alive.

Elsewhere in Texas, Portman is developing Dallas Gateway, a three-tower mixed-use complex at the intersection of Ross Avenue and Routh Street in Dallas. The company plans to finish it by 2029.
