    Talk of Turtle Creek

    These luxe Oak Lawn apartments define refined Dallas living

    Luxury meets stealthy practicality at Gallery at Turtle Creek, the stylish residential community near Oak Lawn Park. Why stealthy? Because the concrete building manages to not only be sleek and chic, but it also helps control things such as noise and temperature — two massive perks, especially when it comes to apartment living.

    But that's not all there is to love about these apartment homes. Here are a few of the most memorable reasons.

    Up-to-date interiors
    Though Gallery at Turtle Creek is only five years old, it's already been undergoing renovations to keep it fresh. Now you'll find quartz countertops, LED lighting, and stainless steel appliances that are energy efficient within all the 350 homes. The units will retain their loft-like feel, but with sophisticated finish-outs and high ceilings.

    Oh-so-quiet lifestyle
    Besides adding a touch of industrial glam, the units' concrete floors have another purpose: containing sound. The sound barriers extend to the walls too, meaning that it's practically impossible to hear your neighbors' comings and goings. Concrete also helps keep the temperature right at your preference — a huge plus during hot Texas summers. And as Gallery at Turtle Creek is surrounded by mostly condominiums, the neighborhood noise is also minimal.

    Roommate-friendly
    In addition to studio and one-bedroom layouts, the community includes a number of two-bedroom floorplans that are ideal for roommates. With separated bedroom suites on opposite sides of the apartment, there's plenty of privacy. Another perk that everyone can enjoy? A washer and dryer are standard in each unit.

    All the amenities
    Let's be real: it's the pool, fitness center, and other add-ons that really set a community apart from its peers. Gallery at Turtle Creek doesn't disappoint, with a two-story cabana at its extra-long pool and a two-story fitness center that's outfitted with all the bells and whistles. A sky deck with a large TV and free WiFi includes a plethora of seating and an attached gourmet kitchen with its own espresso bar. Health-centric resident events are big too, with weekend yoga on the sky deck, pool workouts, and residents-only circuit classes in the gym.

    In the heart of Oak Lawn
    With the Katy Trail on one side and the nightlife and shopping of Uptown and Victory Park on the other, you'll never be at a loss for something to do. Downtown Dallas is just minutes away, but right next door are all the delicious temptations of Eatzi's.

    If you're dying to sneak a peek at this apartment community, you can do so on August 25 when Gallery at Turtle Creek is teaming up with Dallasites101 to throw a free pool party that's open to the public.

    From noon to 5 pm, groove while the DJ spins tunes, knock back free cans of Austin Eastciders, purchase food-truck fare, pick up some sweet swag, and don't forget to tour the property. Bring your towel and sunscreen, and reserve your free ticket here.

    Can't attend? You can still schedule a tour or get more info by calling 214-761-3180 or clicking here.

    Two cabana levels equals twice the space for laying out.

    Justice Dept. drops probe of Muslim-centered community near Dallas

    The U.S. Department of Justice has closed a federal civil rights investigation into a Muslim-centered planned community around one of the state’s largest mosques near Dallas without filing any charges or lawsuits.

    The Justice Department had opened the investigation after U.S. Sen. John Cornyn called for it, arguing that the development could discriminate against Christian and Jews.

    The developers of the proposed Epic City community tied to the East Plano Islamic Center, have complained they are being bullied by multiple federal and state investigations because they are Muslim. Epic City would be near the community of Josephine, about 30 miles northeast of Dallas.

    A June 13 Justice Department letter to Community Capital Partners, the group developing the project, noted the department is closing the investigation.

    “CCP has affirmed that all will be welcome in any future development,” the letter said. The group wrote that they plan to revise and develop marketing materials to reinforce that message.

    A Justice Department spokesperson declined to comment further. The letter was first reported Wednesday by the Dallas Morning News.

    Community Capital Partners had said the development would adhere to the Fair Housing Act and any other state and federal guidelines, and that the community would be open to members of all religions.

    The federal investigation had escalated pressure on the proposed Epic City, which has faced steady criticism and multiple investigations. Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and other GOP state officials have claimed the group is trying to create a community that excludes non-Muslims and would impose Islamic law on residents.

    The developers have said they are not seeking to impose religion on anyone, and that the community would follow state and federal law.

    Among its chief critics has been the state’s hard-right Attorney General Ken Paxton, who is challenging Cornyn for his Senate seat in 2026.

    Dan Cogdell, an attorney for Epic City who defended Paxton in his 2023 impeachment trial when he was acquitted by the state Senate, noted how quickly federal officials had wrapped up their probe.

    None of the investigations would be happening if the community was planned around a Christian church or Jewish temple, Cogdell said.

    “The false accusations that have been swirling around the development were based solely on misinformation, lies and false rumors,” Cogdell said. “Frankly, the politicians that have repeated them without ever bothering to look at any fact should be embarrassed.”

    The state investigations include whether the development is violating financial and fair housing laws and whether funeral practices at the mosque were done legally. The status of those investigations remained unclear Wednesday. Cogdell said the developers will cooperate with anyone who asks.

    The Council on American-Islamic Relations has criticized the federal and state probes as bullying the Muslim community and a violation of constitutionally protected religious expression.

    “We welcome the dropping of this investigation and hope the DOJ’s actions send a clear message to the governor and other officials in Texas that they should similarly drop their Islamophobic witch hunt targeting Muslims in that state,” said CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad.

    Plans for the mixed-used development include more than 1,000 homes and apartments, a faith-based school for kindergarten through 12th grade, a community college, assisted living for older residents, and athletics fields.

    The project may take years to finish. The developers have said they will not even start the initial permitting process for several more months.
