The design for the Dallas environmental sustainability and wellbeing at its core, offering abundant natural light and beautiful green landscaping, including on the rooftop areas. As temperatures in Dallas often exceed 40 degrees Celsius in summer, trees and shrubs are used to cool the roof spaces and apartments, while solar shades and balconies are carefully positioned to further reduce the buildings’ energy expenditure on cooling. The finished development will create the basis for a high-class, happy and healthy community in an excellent location near Dallas city centre.
The 5-hectare site will see the high-specification residential apartments placed at the upper levels, with the ground floor level hosting shops, cafés and restaurants to provide an active and vibrant frontage on Avenue. Podium and underground car parking will be available.
