It's a 10

How this soaring Dallas office tower is revolutionizing business life

When it opens, Harwood No. 10 will be unlike any other office building in Dallas. The 22-story tower developed by Harwood International is nothing like a typical "box" — much like how the other buildings in the HARWOOD District bring restaurants and office buildings to a more sophisticated level.

Learn a little more about the group's latest architectural marvel, and keep an eye out for it when you're traversing HARWOOD's 18 city blocks.

1. Outdoors, meet indoors
Ground-floor gardens? Everyone has those. No. 10 is elevating its green space (literally) to include gardens on the 10th, 16th, and 17th floors, all surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass walls. The penthouse space will also have two private roof gardens, each providing 360-degree views of uptown, downtown, and HARWOOD.

2. Walkability to the max
All of HARWOOD is walkable, but No. 10 is taking it a step — or several steps — further with La Rue Perdue. The European-inspired pedestrian walkway will connect the building to its neighbor, Harwood No. 4, and be lined with retailers chosen through input from current and future HARWOOD District tenants. Going between Dallas towers or strolling an open-air corridor in France? It'll be tough to tell.

3. Score one for the home team
Harwood International has collaborated with some pretty big names in the past, from Kengo Kuma's firm, which is designing the stadium for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, to world-renowned landscape architect Sadafumi Uchiyama. But No. 10 is the first building in HARWOOD that’s being completed entirely in-house, utilizing each part of Harwood International’s fully integrated company. From the architecture and design to the construction and property management, it’s all under the HI umbrella, with HDF Architects leading the design process.

4. Say "custom" and mean it
Incoming tenants to No. 10 can mold the floorplans of their offices to suit their companies. Need more open-plan space? You got it. Offices more your style? No problem. There is a total of 220,548 square feet of office space to work with, so each organization that takes up residence can have exactly what they want and need.

5. Amenities, amenities, amenities
Put aside the incredible dining options in HARWOOD for a moment, as well as the area's packed events calendar, and focus on just this building. Those terrace gardens. Generous covered parking options. An onsite fitness center that has a squash court and golf simulator in its future plans. Plus all the perks that other HARWOOD District tenants enjoy, such as concierge services, car wash services, dry cleaning pick-up and delivery, shoe shining, and HARWOOD Gem cars to whisk you around the neighborhood.

7 booming Dallas neighbors see biggest population growth in U.S.

City of Denton, TX - City Hall/Facebook

Denton had the biggest population growth rate in Dallas-Fort Worth from 2022 to 2023.

Denton, Mansfield, McKinney, and more North Texas cities are among the fastest-growing places in the country, according to a new population growth study by SmartAsset.

The report, "These Cities Saw the Largest Growth in Population – 2024 Study," examined U.S. Census population estimates for 2023, 2022, and 2018 to determine one-year and five-year population changes for 610 U.S. cities with populations of at least 65,000 residents in 2023 (where the most recent data was available).

Silver Spring, Maryland had the No. 1 biggest population boom nationwide from 2022 to 2023, SmartAsset found. The Washington, D.C. suburb grew 12.86 percent year-over-year, bringing the city's total population from 75,313 to 84,996 residents in 2023.

Denton took the lead over all other Dallas-Fort Worth cities with the 16th-largest one-year population growth rate in the U.S., at 5.32 percent. Denton gained over 8,000 residents from 2022 to 2023, bringing the city's total population to 158,361 in 2023.

This should come as no surprise to those who already live in Denton, who may know their hometown was ranked one of the safest suburbs in America.

Mansfield trailed close behind with a 4.16 percent increase in population during that same period, which landed it the No. 26 spot in the one-year population change analysis. The city gained 3,189 new residents in that time, adding up to a total population of 79,775 residents in 2023.

McKinney appeared farther down the list as No. 49 with just a 2.89 percent one-year growth rate from 2022 to 2023, and a total population of 213,504 residents.

Only four other Dallas-Fort Worth cities appeared in the top 100 fastest growing cities in the U.S. from 2022 to 2023:

No. 61 – Frisco (2.48 percent increase)
No. 72 – Rowlett (2.48 percent)
No. 73 – Lewisville (2.17 percent)
No. 99 – Flower Mound (1.73 percent)

The report suggested major population shifts in communities like Denton or Mansfield can result in "a variety of interwoven economic and social impacts."

"The magnitude of the population change can affect demand for businesses and services, which in turn may impact costs – or even the availability of such amenities," the report's author wrote. "Similarly, the relative age of the population can determine the strength or weakness of the local job market, as well as have an impact on local culture, economic trajectory, tax base and more."

Fast-growing cities elsewhere in Texas
Texas cities dominated the top 10 list of cities where population grew the most from 2022 to 2023.

New Braunfels, a San Antonio suburb, ranked No. 2 nationally with an 12.49 percent one-year population boom, and a 29.68 percent growth rate from 2018 to 2023. The city gained 12,318 new residents in that time, adding up to a total population of 110,961 residents in 2023.

Just two spots behind New Braunfels is the North Austin suburb of Georgetown (No. 4), which grew 11.34 percent to 96,317 residents in 2023. According to the report's five-year population change analysis, Georgetown ranked seventh with a 29.85 percent growth rate.

The Houston suburbs of Atascocita and Conroe ranked No. 5 and No. 9, respectively. Atascocita's total population grew to 119,502 residents in 2023, which represented a 11.03 percent growth rate from 2022, and a whopping 38.56 percent population increase since 2018. Conroe's 6.73 percent one-year population increase paled in comparison, but the city grew 23.49 percent during the five-year period from 2018 to 2023.

The top 10 U.S. cities where population grew the most from 2022 to 2023 are:

No. 1 – Silver Spring, Maryland
No. 2 – New Braunfels, Texas
No. 3 – Glen Burnie, Maryland
No. 4 – Georgetown, Texas
No. 5 – Atascocita, Texas
No. 6 – Pine Hills, Florida
