Property 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. Contact listing agent for surveys, plans, grading information, and additional development documentation.
