    Sky-Rise Living

    Own a piece of the Dallas sky at Bleu Ciel luxury condominium tower

    Dec 15, 2014 | 4:23 pm

    Global real estate developer Harwood International has broken ground on its newest high-rise tower, a 33-story luxury condominium community called Bleu Ciel. Tucked inside the District of HARWOOD, this world-class “Sky-rise” will offer two- and three-bedroom floor plans with designer-appointed luxury finishes and premium appliances.

    On December 8, Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings joined Gabriel Barbier-Mueller, Harwood International founder and CEO, and Dallas City Council members Adam Medrano and Philip Kingston for the official groundbreaking ceremony, which signaled the commencement of the inaugural phase of construction. Also on hand were members of the Swiss Club, who delighted the participants with a special alp horn performance that honored the Swiss heritage of Harwood International.

    Urbanites looking for sophisticated, amenity-rich living have the opportunity to “own of piece of the sky” by purchasing a home at Bleu Ciel. With a completion date scheduled for 2016/2017, Bleu Ciel will offer homes priced starting from the mid-$700,000s.

    The “It” Factor
    Bleu Ciel is poised to become the most coveted condominium community in the nation. The building will offer unparalleled amenities, including two junior Olympic-sized pools with cascading water features, poolside kitchen, resident-only spa designed by the award-winning Be a Dragonfly Spa Group, premier fitness center, private garages, climate-controlled wine storage and social spaces, onsite dog run, social room with catering kitchen, 24/7 concierge services, and valet parking.

    On the ground floor of the building, residents will enjoy high-end retail such as a gourmet grocery market and bistro, juice bar, and bike shop. The community will reflect a resort-like ambience with curated garden environments designed by world-renowned landscape architect Sadafumi Uchiyama. Other nationally lauded members of the Bleu Ciel team include architectural firm HDF LLC and design architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte.

    Bleu Ciel is located across the street from Harwood International’s Azure condominium tower and is in proximity to attractions such as the Dallas Design District, Dallas Arts District, Katy Trail, American Airlines Center, Nobu, Klyde Warren Park, and Perot Museum of Nature and Science.

    Bleu Ciel is poised to redefine luxury Sky-rise Living. Discover all that Bleu Ciel has to offer with a visit to the sales center at 3008 N. Harwood St., or call 214-965-1099. Please also visit us online at www.bleucielliving.com and Facebook.

    Dallas Got Robbed

    The richest small town in Texas is surprisingly not in Dallas

    Bellaire, Texas
    Facebook / City of Bellaire, Texas
    Houston neighbor Bellaire is the richest town in Texas.

    A survey of affluent small towns has found one town in Texas to be at the top of the list, but shockingly, it is not in Dallas. The town of Bellaire, a small enclave within the Houston metro area, has earned the top spot as the richest small town in Texas for 2025. Boo.

    The report, "The Richest Small Town in Every State," from GoBankingRates, selected one city from each state, using data from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey to determine the 50 richest small towns based on their median household income.

    Describing Bellaire as a "small town" might be a misnomer. It's located less than 10 miles from downtown Houston and is fully surrounded by the City of Houston. It's really more of a wealthy enclave within Houston, with a population of just over 17,000 residents.

    Those affluent citizens earn a median $236,311 in income every year, which GoBankingRates says is the 11th highest household median income out of all 50 cities included in the report.

    The average home in this city is worth over $1.12 million, but Bellaire's lavish residential reputation often attracts properties with multi-million-dollar price tags.

    Bellaire also earned a shining 81 livability score for its top quality schools, health and safety, commute times, with an abundance of exceptional local amenities.

    Those include conveniently located grocery stores, coffee shops, diverse dining options, and spacious parks.

    It's not the first time that Bellaire has caught the eye of GoBankingRates, which previously ranked it as the No. 23 wealthiest suburb in America, and it's been named on similar lists comparing the richest American cities.

    Dallas can take comfort in the fact that a different survey found Lewisville to be of the cities attracting the most high-income households, meaning those that make more than $200,000. However, census data places the most recent median income in Lewisville at $85,002 — so it's nowhere close to catching up to Bellaire.
