Description
Rare opportunity to acquire a development-ready lot just seconds away from Bishop Arts and within walking distance of restaurants, retail, entertainment, and the newly developed Halperin Park.
Significant pre-development work has already been completed, including a boundary survey, topographic survey, engineered grading and foundation plans, stamped architectural plans, and site preparation with imported fill dirt to improve build-ability.
The existing plans may be modified to fit a buyer's vision, potentially saving substantial time and upfront design costs. Seller can also provide introductions to the architect and design team familiar with the project to help streamline the development process.
The property is zoned PD-468 and located within a Shopfront Overlay, offering potential for a mixed-use development with commercial space at street level and residential use above. Buyers should independently verify zoning, overlay requirements, and development regulations with the City of Dallas.
A future rooftop terrace or upper-level living space may offer attractive Downtown Dallas skyline views, creating a unique urban living opportunity.
Seller's development plans have changed, creating an opportunity for a builder, investor, or developer to acquire a site with much of the preliminary work already completed.
Conveniently located near Bishop Arts, Halperin Park, Downtown Dallas, and ongoing area revitalization, this property offers exceptional potential for a thoughtfully designed mixed-use project.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe experience of being at a regular school has shaped who I am today. I am thankful I did not go to a magnet school. Being a high rank at a regular school is better than being average at a magnet school.Student Review9y ago - James Bowie Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageJames Bowie was the worst school my children have ever attended. The front office staff is rude and ineffective. Anytime, I had to communicate with them, no one was ever able to be helpful and always provided conflicting information. Student records were requested from a school that my children never attended. There were three bright spots a male 4th grade teacher, the second grade teachers as well as Ms. Dennis who teaches 3rd grade and of course the nurse who proved to be the most helpful. The assistant principal is the rudest most unprofessional administrator that I have ever encountered.... if you are thinking about enrolling your children in this school I would consider anywhere else but here.Other Review9y ago - Hector P Garcia Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSo far my experience in this school as a concerned parent has been very positive. My daughter is very shy and I was scared for her at first, but now she loves going to school, specially to a reading class with a teacher name Mr. Sanchez. She always likes to talk about her favorite class. Overall I’m satisfied.Parent Review8mo ago
