I wonder if this is simply another apartment complex being built.

That is precisely what it is... A rather bland four story apartment complex. Nothing special here at all. There was a recent change that went through P&Z over the last few weeks, but it just barely expanded the number of units. It won't even be as dense as the complex on the other side of the station. A little disappointing.

Kelley USA wrote:An interesting note from the previous City Council Special Session... Hillwood Development and DCURD (Dallas County Utility Reclamation District) are looking at options to "activate" the plaza at The Towers at Williams Square (where the Mustangs are). DCURD actually owns the plaza and Hillwood is the managing face of The Towers. DCURD wants to soften the plaza and make it much more inviting while Hillwood wants to add restaurant / retail space to the first level of the buildings. These projects would be done jointly. Water Street is sort of the catalyst for the idea. I think it would be awesome!

Leasing office looked like it was almost ready as well. Hard to believe when you look at the other end of the site. I dig that dark brick color they have used as well... nice...

Security is not allowing pickups by the restaurants/bars at all. I can see this working for events/concerts, but just grabbing something to eat/drink then having to walk so far might be overkill to some (especially if the weather isn't agreeable).
Developers are building an apartment community near Irving's new Toyota Music Factory entertainment and retail center.
The 387-unit rental home project will be built east of the Irving convention center near Northwest Highway and Las Colinas Boulevard, across from the Irving Convention Center.

What intersection is that pictured? They mention Las Colinas/NW HWY/Promonade Pkwy, but those intersections are already spoken for (Texican Hotel). This corner looks very similar to the 'Jefferson Riverside' down the street, but obviously it's not the same.
I assume one of these streets (the one on the left?) is the new (short) road extending from Promonade, and dead ending at the train station. But if that's the case, than this development isn't exactly 'across the street from the convention center'... It's another block to the east. Does anybody have more info?

I had to do some digging to find out the location myself. How hard is it to throw in a map?
It is between NW Hwy and promenade Pkwy. East of the dart station, on the far East side abutting the 'connecting canal'.

Kelley USA wrote:The Terraces of Las Colinas / Shops of Las Colinas is coming before P&Z tonight for final action. So hopefully this is a good sign that the development is moving forward. This is the Market Street anchored development that also shows Hopdoddy, Chuy's, Lazy Dog, Super Chix, Torchy's and a few others on the site plan.
It also looks like Sleep Number is going before P&Z to take over the old Pollo Tropical space in the Whole Foods shopping center.
