VIEW OF THE BRIDGE

The lights were on at the Dallas Design Group Christmas Party. That is, search lights, as in the lights outlining the future Calatrava bridge that Christine talked about. Wow! From the deck of their building the view is stupendous. Because of the perspective– at Glass and Levee– they are very close, the bridge seems to dwarf downtown Dallas! Could it be King Kong–The Bridge?

The aforementioned deck has been constructed with a future residence in mind.

And this seems to be the trend in the Design District. Gary Elam already has construction plans for a residence above his building on Slocum St. John Gregory rents from Philip Maia next door, who also has plans for a residence. Makes the discussion of the future of the Design District even more interesting–about 25% of Slocum Street and Dragon Street are owned by tenants.
