Anyone looking to rent an apartment downtown?

It's amazing that they are projecting a demand for luxury residences downtown where there has been effectively no resident population in 40+ years. What demographic is going to live there? Wealthy retired? Mid-career professionals? I can't see families with young kids there.

Man, I work at the HEB complex downtown, and I'll be living at the Vistana whenever it opens up. I'm 24 and don't have any kids, so it's perfect for Mandy and I.

Living this close to downtown is bad ass, but actually living IN downtown has to be even better.

I'm with Amy on this one. Until I bought a house, I always tried to live in a downtown area no matter where I lived. Anytime you can stumble home drunk from a bar and it only takes 10-15 minutes, then you're in good shape.

They have updated their website with floor plans and more renderings.

Nothing says high end living like hookers congregating out front.

I didn't read this thread the first time around..but man that place looks bad ass. During my break I was looking at places in downtown Dallas and wow..this sounds like a good deal. And as for thos renter haters...you can pay my loans and I'll buy my house.

So IF they are still saying you can rent from $650 ... what you get for that will be a studio with under 500 sf (sixth floor, S1 or S4 for example). Anything with living space (e.g. a bedroom) will be well over $1K/month.

Cool looking building, tho. There's not a lot of shopping down there so hopefully there will be a greengrocer in the building.

YEP, COOL LOOKING BUILDING, but paying $650 for 500sf just does not give me enough space to kick the dog around.
Right across from Milam Park, the local hang out for the homeless at night.
you got the Cattlemens bar just 3 blocks down the street where you can get whatever your little heart desires. GREAT MEAT MARKET ON WEDNESDAYS.....IT'S LADIES NITE !!!!!!
