New mixed-income apartments to replace old, North Dallas office

October 12, 2026 - 17:51

A vacant office property along LBJ Freeway in north Dallas is being transformed into a new residential development. High Street Residential is moving forward with plans to build a 435-unit apartment community on the site, replacing the old office buildings that had sat unused for years.

The project reflects a broader shift in the Dallas real estate market, where aging office parks are increasingly being converted or torn down to make room for housing. Demand for rental units in the area remains strong, driven by proximity to major highways, employment centers, and growing commercial hubs nearby.

The new development is expected to offer a mix of unit sizes, with rents aimed at a range of income levels. That approach is meant to attract young professionals, families, and older residents looking to downsize without leaving the neighborhood.

Construction timelines have not been fully detailed, but site work is expected to begin in the coming months. Once complete, the complex will add hundreds of new homes to a corridor that has long been dominated by office space. Local observers say the change could bring more foot traffic and activity to the surrounding area, while also helping address the region's ongoing need for varied housing options.
