A Houston-based outfit named PM Realty plans to build something sure to warm the cockles of all those who appreciate the things that NorthPark Center (and surrounding areas) have to offer: shopping, dining, getting stuck for two or three cycles in the left turn lane, more shopping, yet more dining, etc. - and, once the multi-use 20-story megalith is completed, you'll be able to live there! Or just spend a few nights (and I don't mean snuggled up to a trash bin behind Dillard's).
The corner of North Central and Park Lane will be the location for the new Park Lane Place development. The 33 acre complex will provide for 2 million square feet of mixed retail, residential, hotel and office space. So, basically, it'll be like living on board an aircraft carrier, where your every need can be catered to (including catering, if we're lucky) without ever leaving the ship. I mean, building. And without the threat of some damn plane crashing through a bulkhead into your cot.
What about a grocery store, you say? Pipe down, lettuce breath - the country's largest Whole Foods Market will be housed under the (sure to be massive) roof.
The first phase of the project (residential units) is scheduled to be completed in the summer of 2008. Hey, if you're into reading, you could nab a room at the new Valencia Hotel and take the (free) trolley across the way to the Dallas Public Library's new NorthPark branch!
Further details are here.
