Warehouse Chic

Discover these hip Dallas Design District digs before the secret's out

To find space in Dallas, you might think your only option is to travel out and away from the city center. However, the Alexan Riveredge apartments have staked their roomy claim in one of Dallas' coolest and most overlooked neighborhoods: the Design District.

Long the hub for private showrooms, studios, galleries, and warehouses, the Design District has been enjoying a public revitalization as of late, with big-name restaurants joining craft breweries, hip coffeehouses, and the retro Bowlounge as must-visit destinations. The restaurant wonderland Trinity Groves, with more than a dozen dining options, is just over the Calatrava-designed Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge.

So while this area continues its journey from up-and-coming to arrived-and-awesome, it's the ideal time for you to move in as well.

Creative types will appreciate Alexan Riveredge's aesthetic, which mirrors its warehouse 'hood with industrial-chic touches such as stained concrete floors. Business-savvy residents will love the apartments' easy access to Dallas' major highways, and how downtown is mere minutes away. And everyone can agree that extra square footage is a welcome change.

The units themselves, which range from studio to two-bedroom layouts, boast features such as 9-foot (or higher) ceilings, stainless steel appliances, quartz or granite countertops, and USB plugs.

You can enjoy the glittering Dallas view from either your own apartment or the Skyline Terrace, one of several community areas that provides a little something extra. The Clubroom, WiFi Lounge, Cardio Gym, Yoga Studio, Resident Lounge, and resort-style pool with private cabanas all round out the Alexan Riveredge experience.

The official grand opening is June 15, and Alexan Riveredge is hosting A Taste of the Design District to celebrate. There will be live music, bites and brews, and all the local shops, retailers, and restaurants will be on hand to welcome their new neighbor.

Want to be part of that experience? Now's the time to go here for more info or call 888-642-2641 to schedule a tour.

The Alexan Riveredge has lots of space for residents to hang out.

Viral food critic Keith Lee has moved from Las Vegas to Dallas

TikTok food critic Keith Lee is now a Texas resident.

Social media sensation and local restaurant reviewer Keith Lee has packed his bags and made the big move from Las Vegas to Texas.

The famous food critic "let the cat out of the bag" officially in a recent post on the social media platform TikTok, where he posts all of his restaurant reviews. But he'd already previously revealed that he and his wife, Ronnie, became homeowners in a different video posted in mid-October.

"Not only have those food reviews played a pivotal role in changing me and my family's life, over 150 families' lives across the nation in less than a year's time," Lee said in the video. "And on top of that, I just became the first person in an entire generation to own a house."

Though Lee didn't share which Texas city he and his family moved to, posts on X (formerly known as Twitter) tipped it off that he'd moved to Dallas, while at the same time urging fans to give the guy some privacy.

"If you’ve met Keith Lee in Dallas recently don’t be weird and post what area," one X user wrote. "He’s still human & he’s new here. Let’s not ruin it."

Lee is no stranger to Dallas, after having spent a week in Dallas-Fort Worth in February 2024. He visited local restaurants like Brunchaholics, Thunderbird Pies, Halal Fuzionz, and more.

He also made a special visit to Taste Project in Fort Worth to donate $4,000 to support the nonprofit's mission to fight food insecurity.

In June, Lee swing back through Dallas to partner with Microsoft in a project called "The Reheat," to show how the tech company's AI products can help three Black-owned restaurants deal with business surges.

Most recently, Lee returned to Dallas to review the classic and buzzy food offerings at the Texas State Fair, such as a steak kabob, cotton candied bacon, turkey leg tacos, and much more. Maybe the State Fair is what cinched the win over Houston, which he visited in November 2023.
