DALLAS CBD CURRENT EVENTS A Dallas energy firm is headed to new digs in Victory Park. HF Sinclair Corp. is taking more than 90,600 SF of space in the One Victory Park tower northwest of downtown. The company is moving from near The Crescent to the 20-story tower at 2323 Victory Avenue. “We are excited by the opportunity to partner with HF Sinclair to bring their global headquarters and iconic Dino brand to One Victory Park,” David Dow of building owner Clarion Partners said in a statement. “With the property’s best-in-class amenities such as the new food hall, and prime location offering easy accessibility, we’re confident One Victory is a place HF Sinclair will love to call home for many years to come.” HollyFrontier Corp. and Holly Energy Partners L.P. last year established HF Sinclair Corp. after an acquisition of Sinclair Oil Corp. and Sinclair Transportation Co. The energy firm manufactures and sells gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, products and specialty chemicals. A landmark building in downtown Dallas’ West End district has changed hands. The more than century-old Landmark Center on Ross Avenue is one of the largest properties in the historic district. The six-story building was constructed in 1913 as a warehouse for General Electric. The 140,317 SF property was converted to offices in the 1970s. The historic building has been up for sale since last year. Previous owner Spear Street Capital invested more than $7 million to upgrade Landmark Center since acquiring the property in 2015. A week after one of downtown Dallas’ largest office occupiers announced plans to leave, one of the area’s top developers says the city’s core needs a new generation of office space. Multiple businesses have migrated from downtown to newer buildings in Uptown in the past decade. Bank of America plans to leave its longtime location on Main Street for a 30-story tower to be built just north of downtown.“Downtown needs new office space,” said Lucy Burns, partner in Dallas-based Billingsley Co., one of North Texas’ most successful office builders. “Uptown is getting a lot of it. “Downtown needs some to continue to attract business – particularly groups that are moving here from other parts of the country,” Burns said at a Thursday meeting of the economic development group Downtown Dallas Inc.

A Dallas developer is finalizing plans for two towers to be built on North Central Expressway near Highland Park. Woods Capital last year acquired two high-rise development sites on the west side of North Central at Webb Avenue. The developer with a track record of major downtown Dallas projects has been working on plans for two buildings on the properties. On the development site at 5115 McKinney Avenue, Woods Capital intends to build a 20-story residential tower, according to planning documents filed with the state. The $70M high-rise called The English will total more than 368K SF and is set to start early next year. WDG Architecture designed the building, which would open in 2026. Triten Real Estate Partners has completed the transformation of Assembly Park two years after debuting ambitious redevelopment plans for the 300K SF property. The development is located at Central Expressway and Spring Creek Parkway and is the former home of Plano Market Square Mall, a retail center built in 1983. Triten turned the mall into a mixeduse development consisting of multifamily, retail, restaurants and office space.


12 Q2 2023 DFW OFFICE MARKET REPORT

CURRENT EVENTS Topping out construction on an office building isn’t usually much of a headliner. But the structural completion of a Frisco building is different. It’s the first timber commercial building construction in the area in almost a century. Developer Crow Holdings hopes to complete the wood-structured Southstone Yards building by the end of the year. The seven-story, 242K SF office building constructed with “mass timber” beams is going up on the north side of State Highway 121, west of the Dallas North Tollway. It’s the first and largest mass timber office building project in North Texas. Crow Holdings started the Frisco project last year — the first phase of a 45-acre mixed-use development. This week, contractors with Structure Tone and SmartLam North America put the last laminated wood beams in place at Southstone Yards. Crow Holdings senior managing director Cody Armbrister said the building should be ready for the first occupants by the start of 2024. The developer is talking to potential tenants for the project. With the newest building opening its doors in the Dallas Cowboys’ Star development in Frisco, plans are already in the works for another high-rise. The $1.5 billion, 91-acre mixed-use development on the Dallas North Tollway has been under construction since 2014 and includes the headquarters and training facilities for the professional football team. Blue Star Land — the real estate firm founded by Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones — and developer Lincoln Property Co. have almost fully leased the newest 314K SF office building at 17 Cowboys Way at the tollway. The 11-story glass high-rise started construction in 2021. About 93% of the tower is leased to tenants at quoted rents of more than $40 per square foot. The largest tenants include Comerica Bank, financial services firm Cain Watters and Associates, tech firm McAfee, Wells Fargo Advisors and Boingo Wireless. One of North Texas’ biggest data center campuses is growing again. CyrusOne broke ground in 2017 on the first phase of its 90-acre tech complex on Chelsea Drive in Allen. It’s one of the largest data center campuses in Texas, planned for almost 1M SF of construction, according to CyrusOne. In August, the company filed plans for a $50 million, 82,750 SF expansion of the complex near U.S. Highway 75. Now CyrusOne is signaling that it will start work after the first of the year on another $31 million, 126,005 SF addition, according to planning documents filed with the state.

Fort Worth has closed the books on the $18M purchase of the Central Library, setting up a development that could bring a new chapter of change to the area on the west side of downtown. While plans are still in the preliminary stages, Dart Interests LLC, a Dallas-based firm specializing in real estate investment and development, expects to build a multi-story, mixed-use development on the site with residential, retail and office space. The sale was initially announced in December, but didn’t officially close until May. The released renderings show two (2) 20-story buildings which would add a new appeal to Fort Worth’s skyline, said David Berzina,vice president of JLL Fort Worth. “Additionally, this sale not only sets a new benchmark for commercial land sales in downtown Fort Worth but also reflects the immense value and potential of the Fort Worth market,” he said. The price tag for the project is likely to exceed the $200M city officials were hoping to see for the development, JLL officials said. The two towers would replace the current 234K SF building at 500 W. 3rd St. that has housed the Central Library since 1978. The city listed the building in February 2022 pointing to a 45% decrease in usage since the 2020 pandemic and decreasing use of the building over time. That mirrored library usage trends around the country. The listing required prospective buyers to invest at least $100 million into the property and redevelop the area as a mixed-use project. The Dart Interests project is expected to exceed that, officials at JLL said. “We look forward to working with the city and its downtown residents and workforce to bring to life a development that gives more people the opportunity to live, work, play, and experience all that Fort Worth has to offer,” said Christopher Kelsey, Dart Interests president, in a statement.

Dart Interests has more than a billion dollars invested in real estate across seven states, including projects in New York, Washington, D.C., South Carolina and Houston, but the Fort Worth project is the company’s first in North Texas. The city had a requirement that the development include a new space for the library for several years. That requirement limited some potential buyers, Berzina said. But Dart Interests was on board with the library space, he said. “Now, we don’t know if that’s what the city wants to do, but that’s an available option,” Todd Burnette, managing director of JLL Fort Worth, who along with Berzina, was part of the team that marketed the property for the city, said the site generated a great deal of interest from around the country. “You’ve got the largest piece of property available downtown, two contiguous city blocks, so there was a lot of interest,” he said. Burnette noted that development downtown has recently focused on hotel expansions and that currently there are several downtown residential developments under way. He expects whatever is built on the Central Library property to be part of that. “We think the residential is truly what’s going to transform downtown Fort Worth,” Burnette said. He expects residential and retail will kick off the development with office development to follow. “That’s typically what occurs and in this case, with the interest rate environment as it is, that makes sense,” he said. However, Burnette said downtown needs new office development. The last new highrise office in downtown was the Frost Tower, which opened in 2018. “If you look at downtown, where there’s a 13% class A office vacancy, which means there are very limited full floor options downtown,” he said. That makes relocations or redevelopment of existing spaces difficult, he said. Corporate America is still trying to figure out how to attract employees back to the office, and the next wave of office development is going to reflect those trends, Burnette said. “I think once the Fed figures out where the interest rates need to be, we’ll see some very interesting office developments coming, and I think this will be one of them,” he said. “With all the development going on downtown, with Texas A&M and the convention center upgrades, we’re going to see office development.” The development of the property will not only create new jobs within the towers and during construction, but it will also help generate additional tax revenues for the city, Burnette said. As a city building, the library property isn’t currently on the tax rolls. The new development will add to the city’s tax base, he said. JLL is also consulting with the city on relocating central library services somewhere downtown. Those plans are still ongoing, JLL officials said.

LAS COLINAS CURRENT EVENTS Another huge Dallas-Fort Worth data center project is in the works – this time in Las Colinas. The $180M development is planned by Kansas-based QTS Realty Trust, which operates data centers in more than a dozen states. In 2014, QTS Realty expanded to North Texas with its purchase of a 700K SF property near State Highway 114 in Irving. The building on Longhorn Drive previously housed a semiconductor plant. QTS repurposed the buildings and has been expanding on the more than 50-acre campus. The latest project will add 264,400 SF of space, according to planning documents filed with the state. The data center, designed by Dallas architect Corgan, is scheduled to open in late 2025. When finished, the Las Colinas campus is planned for about 2M SF. That would make it one of the largest data center complexes in North Texas.

The new owners of a North Dallas high-rise office campus have signed a major tenant for the buildings. California investor Stanton Road Capital last year purchased the two (2) Element office towers on LBJ Freeway. The 670K SF silver glass high-rises are home to companies including golf course operator ClubCorp, now known as Invited. Engineering firm Criado & Associates is moving its corporate headquarters to the property from Spring Valley Road in Farmers Branch. The firm is taking 16K SF of space. “Criado was looking for the right location to accommodate our office needs to include securing our fleet vehicles,” president Cristina Criado said in a statement. Investors who last year bought one of north Dallas’ largest office campuses are gearing up to overhaul the three (3) tower project. Along with the Galleria Towers and Lincoln Centre, the Towers at Park Central are one of the most prominent office addresses along the busy LBJ Freeway. Since November, the almost 875K SF office complex has been owned by Florida-based Morning Calm Management. After months of planning, Morning Calm is almost ready to kick off renovations of the buildings that date to the 1980s. “Over the years, a significant amount of money went into the buildings, with different ownership doing different things,” Morning Calm CEO Mukang Cho said. “What we are doing is really streamlining and making the buildings seem more harmonious. We are also going to enhance the amenities. “We are hopefully just a few short weeks away from swinging hammers.” The three (3) eight-story to 14-story office buildings on LBJ Freeway at Coit Road were only about 55% occupied when Morning Calm purchased the properties. Since then, the new owners have been working with the Dallas office of Newmark Group to bring new tenants to the buildings and prepare for the redo. The office towers and the adjoining 536-room Westin Hotel were one of the biggest property developments in Dallas when they were announced in 1980. The offices and hotel were a major addition to the surrounding Park Central mixed-use development, which was kicked off in the early 1970s by Dallas developer Trammell Crow working with Atlanta architect John Portman. The project — on the site of a former airport — had stalled for several years before development was restarted with investor Equitable Life Assurance. After changing hands several times over the years, Morning Calm bought the towers from a California investor who had previously spent $7.5M to reboot the buildings.


16 Q2 2023 DFW OFFICE MARKET REPORT

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE

MID-CITIES CURRENT EVENTS While questions remain about the state of office broadly, Mansfield has made efforts to create its own office market. It seems to be working – a mixed-use project called Heritage Park, featuring 60K SF of Class A office development will soon break ground in the city. Located along Heritage Parkway and Highway 287, the project should break ground by 2024. Heritage Park represents the latest mixed-use development in Mansfield, which has seen a wave of recent development activity including new office development. In addition to the office building, the development will feature an upscale 125-room Courtyard by Marriott hotel, 20K SF of retail, restaurant and medical office space as well as parks and civic areas. Heath-based master developer 1ONEFirm Inc. and hotel developer Tekmak Development are behind the project. The developers envision Heritage Park as a vibrant, walkable mixed-use district that will encompass office spaces, retail outlets, residential properties, hospitality options and entertainment venues. While the office market has flagged for some time now, the sheer number of projects heading to Mansfield helped convince 1ONEFirm’s executives to go through with the development. “It doesn’t take long for a man to look into the City of Mansfield and see all that’s coming here,” said Brian Berry, CEO and partner of 1ONEFirm. Previously, 1ONEFirm was predominantly active in Rockwall County, undertaking projects including the South Ridge Development in Heath, a city east of Dallas. The company initially became interested in Mansfield several years ago, when Berry was working alongside another group to do a development in the city. While that development fell through, Berry said he gained valuable insight into the city’s goals relating to industry growth and new development. Specifically, companies were interested in moving to Mansfield, but the city didn’t have any blocks of office available for them to lease. Berry heads up 1ONEFirm with Clay Spicer, COO and partner at 1ONEFirm. The pair are childhood friends who reconnected later in their careers to form the company. Berry previously worked in mechanical and dental construction, while Spicer had a career in the military and in commercial construction. 1ONEFirm found the property that will house Heritage Park and initially thought it was larger than what they needed. However, the company realized a hospitality element would add a positive dimension to the project and brought on Tekmak. The project will create an anticipated 250 jobs as well as bring an estimated $70M value in ad-valorem during the first phase. There are incentives tied to the project. While there is inherent risk in getting underway with new office development, Berry said the amount of new development heading to Mansfield helps offset it. Additionally, there are companies looking to set up offices in the city who have previously had to look elsewhere because of the lack of available space. The firm will aim to create a product tailored to companies seeking floorplates of around 10K SF to 20K SF. That square footage may appeal to those in slightly larger spaces looking to downsize, Berry said. Mansfield has seen a spate of new development recently, including a $60M mixed-use development located south of the Julian apartment development near Toll Road 360. The project will feature multi-family residential, rowhouse, neighborhood-oriented commercial and civic space. Dubbed the Campbell Development, the site aims to create a mixeduse destination that is focused on distinct architecture and complimentary amenities. The city will also soon get a new entertainment venue. High Five Entertainment has proposed a 45K SF venue that would include bowling, laser tag, arcades, bars, restaurants and other family entertainment across a two-story campus within Mansfield. Some of that “other family entertainment” may include axe throwing and escape rooms, according to city documents. Earlier this year, Admiral Legacy Investments unveiled a 240K SF office development called The Mansfield Innovation Community, or The MIC, which will serve as the epicenter of the Mansfield Innovation Corridor. The city is investing heavily in the deal, intent on fostering significant industry growth in the community.

A proposed $120M development is in the planning stages for Panther Island, the first large-scale project for the area north of downtown since the federal government announced funding for the flood control portion in the area in 2022. The development, called Vaquero Panther Island, would bring more than 500K SF of office and retail space to a 12-acre site at 529 N Throckmorton Street. The site is along the north bank of the Trinity River, on the west side of Houston Street and below Northwest Fifth Street, according to plans filed with the city of Fort Worth. The development would be near Encore Panther Island, the apartment complex that opened in 2022. The project will receive plenty of scrutiny as real estate firms, the city and Panther Island leaders determine how best to proceed with development on the area as construction begins on the bypass channels. “Taking that first step is always the most important step,” said Carlos Flores, City Council representative for District 2, which includes much of Panther Island. “Developers need to know essentially where to dig as utility relocation would be a very important consideration in those cases,” Flores said. He expects more proposals for the area to start coming in now that federal funding is assured and consultants have provided a development blueprint. “Because of our consultants’ work on Panther Island, HR&A Advisors, they’ve offered more clarity in the form-based codes as to what kind of development is desirable for the area,” he said. The Vaquero Panther Island proposal would see three or four buildings consisting of mixed-use office space with retail on the ground floors of the five-story buildings. The developers filed two possible renderings for the project, one with 461K SF of office space and 51K SF of retail space and a second version with 361K SF of office space and 37K SF of retail. A possible second phase of the project could bring a 150-room hotel and 31K SF of retail to the project. The plans come from Fort Worth’s Tillar Partners, a real estate development firm, and BOKA Powell, an architecture, interior design and planning firm. Tillar Partners includes co-founders W.A. Landreth, Brian Williams and Sarah LanCarte. The developers are set to meet with city staff in October in a pre-development conference on the project. In August, consulting firm HR&A Advisors published an updated, long-term blueprint for the Panther Island partners, primarily the city of Fort Worth and the Tarrant Regional Water District, to follow in the development of the area.

JCPenney has moved back into its former headquarters in Plano and the permanent sign at the Legacy Drive entrance says JCPenney again. The retailer was one of the first companies to identify Plano as a corporate headquarters city when it decided to leave New York in 1987. It built the sprawling campus at 6501 Legacy Drive and moved in in 1992. Until the pandemic and the retailer’s bankruptcy filing in 2020, JCPenney had occupied the building for 28 years and the return this month is more than symbolic. JCPenney was able to reject the lease as part of its court-led reorganization while the corporate headquarters staff went fully remote during the pandemic. Asked about how the move back helps JCPenney with its employee retention and hiring, Andre Joyner, chief human resources officer said employees have a dedicated space for “teaming, collaboration and connection.” A permanent office space conveys stability to current employees and future hires that the organization has made a commitment to them, said Jim DePaul, executive vice president of stores at JCPenney. JCPenney operates 650 stores and has been privately held since late 2020 when its two largest mall landlords purchased the retailer out of bankruptcy. A sprawling adaptive reuse project in the North Texas city of Plano that will transform a 200-acre former tech campus into a multi-use, life sciences-centered district with 4M SF of labs, has taken key steps forward in recent weeks, earning approval from a local planning and zoning commission in mid-July and announcing a new name, the Texas Research Quarter. The ambitious project, led by Dallasbased NexPoint Advisors, aims to bolster the growth of life sciences and lab development in Texas during a time of uncertainty in the market and questions about the pace of expansion in secondary markets like Houston. NexPoint purchased the 91-acre Electronic Data Systems campus for $125M in 2018 and has steadily added adjacent parcels as part of its redevelopment efforts. Plans for the Texas Research Quarter include residential space, a research hospital, biomanufacturing capacity and office space. It also would incorporate 109 acres of the adjacent Legacy Business Park, a 3,000-acre development and significant regional employment center. NexPoint believes the Texas Research Quarter could function as a centralizing, convening project and catapult the Dallas region into a more prominent position in life sciences. A financial technology firm has relocated its North American headquarters from California to Plano. QuickFee is a 14-year-old company with operations in the U.S. and Australia. The company has been operating in the U.S. since 2016 and previously was based in Los Angeles.QuickFee has relocated its North American head office to the Parkwood Place building at 5601 Democracy Drive in Plano.

SOUTHWEST FORT WORTH CURRENT EVENTS PNC Bank announces a lease for Class-A office space at the new mixed-use development, The Crescent Fort Worth. Members of PNC’s corporate, commercial and private bank teams will relocate to the new space in early 2024. “PNC Bank continues to grow our business and the number of employees in both Dallas and Fort Worth,” said Dale Klose, PNC territory executive for the southwest and mountain region. “We recently increased our office space in The Crescent Dallas and now we are growing our footprint in the heart of Fort Worth.” The new development in Fort Worth’s Cultural District at 3230 Camp Bowie Boulevard is west of downtown, near the Will Rogers Coliseum, and across the street from the Kimbell Art Museum and the Modern Art Museum. The office was designed with clients and collaboration in mind. The design team combined a mix of traditional offices and conference rooms with modern high-tech workspaces. “This new office space reflects the creative energy from the surrounding area,” added Brendan McGuire, PNC regional president for North Texas. “PNC has long recognized the power of arts and culture and the positive role it plays in a community. Relocating to The Crescent Fort Worth will help us tap into the vibrancy of Fort Worth’s Cultural District and inspire an exciting work environment for our teams.” In addition to Corporate and institutional Banking and Asset Management, PNC has an extensive retail branch network across North Texas. “We have created a vibrant mixed-use development and having a highquality national bank like PNC whose local leadership team is focused on North Texas is the right fit for this space,” said John Goff, chairman of Crescent Real Estate.

UPTOWN CURRENT EVENTS Developers have topped out construction on an Uptown Dallas tower. The 12-story office high-rise is going up in the former Quadrangle complex near McKinney Avenue. The 335K SF office building is part of the $100M redevelopment of the landmark shopping center built in the 1960s. Dallas-based Stream Realty Partners is building the project that includes new retail space along with the office. The development has been rebranded as The Quad. Designed by Dallas architect Omniplan, the office building will include The Quad Club on the top floor, an amenity center with tenant lounge, conference center and terrace overlooking downtown Dallas and Uptown. Austin Commercial is the general contractor for the building, which is scheduled to open in March. An Uptown Dallas office building has gotten a reboot with $8 million in upgrades. The building at 2501 Cedar Springs is just blocks from The Crescent and is owned by Mexico-based real estate firm Grupo Haddad. The 110K SF building was constructed in 1982 near Turtle Creek and was previously home to pipeline firm EnLink Midstream. Grupo Haddad purchased the building in 2013. More than a year after disclosing plans for the project, New York-based Goldman Sachs Group and Dallas’ Hunt Realty are finally ready to break ground on the financial firm’s new campus north of downtown. In June of last year, Dallas’ city council voted to provide more than $18 million in economic incentives to support development of the $500M office center to be constructed on Field Street next to Victory Park. Since then, the financial services giant and developers have been working to prepare for the project, which will be built on the site of apartments that were cleared to make way for the North End development. Dallas developer Hillwood is part of the team building the project. The office buildings for Goldman Sachs will be the first phase of an 11acre high-rise mixed-use development Hunt Realty is building next to the Perot Museum. The North End project will also include additional offices, residential and hotel towers and retail space built around a 1.5-acre park. An Oregon-based financial services firm is the latest tenant to land in a new Uptown Dallas office project. Portland-based M Financial Group is taking 52K SF of space in the Quad office building under construction near McKinney Avenue. The high-rise is part of the $100 million redevelopment of the Quadrangle shopping center built in the 1960s. New tenant M Financial services a network of more than 130 independent financial firms located around the country. “Our expansion into Dallas gives us a more centralized location to better serve our wide-ranging community of member firms and their clients,” M Financial Russell Bundschuh said in a statement. “The Quad presents us with the best of both worlds — a location in Uptown Dallas surrounded by a flourishing financial services sector and all the benefits that it provides, as well as access to world-class amenities favored by our current and prospective employees and visiting guests.” M Financial has been based in Portland since 1978. The new Dallas office will be the company’s first out-of-state office expansion.
