    High-Rise News

    High-rise in Dallas Design District comes with cool pool and restaurant

    Do those pool floats look like avocados?

    Urby Dallas

    A new residential development has landed in Dallas' Design District, that comes with its own restaurant, open to the public.

    Called the Urby, it's a 27-story building with 383 apartments located at 1930 Hi Line Dr., across from the Virgin Dallas hotel. According to a release, leasing is underway.

    It'll also be home to a neighborhood bistro called Charley, opening in late November-early December.

    Urby features studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments with rents starting at $1,956 for a studio on the low end, and topping out at $3,467 for a two-bedroom two-bath unit, with most rents in the $2,200-$2,600 range.

    Amenities include a fitness facility with yoga studio, dog park, dog wash, and a prismatic pool inspired by pools found in Yellowstone National Park. Pool-wise, that is reaching pretty high.

    In addition to the restaurant Charley, there'll be an accompanying lounge for residents only called The Salon, plus a private dining room with communal table for foodie events or work meetings. A library, which residents can use as a workspace, will offer a menu serviced by Charley.

    There's no info yet on chef or menu, but the design is by Shawn Hausman Design, a restaurant and boutique hotel designer whose portfolio includes The Standard, Chateau Marmont, Le Diplomat, and Little Doms, for groups like André Balazs Properties, Standard Hotels International, and Stephen Starr Restaurants.

    According to a spokesperson, all Urby properties come with an in-house restaurant or cafe. For Charley, Hausman drew inspiration from Austrian cafes, from classic Viennese cafes to offbeat spots in Graz. Decorative features will include historic European furniture and an "unexpected" color palette.

    Founded in 2016, Urby is part of a chain by president and CEO David Barry, a New York developer whose prior properties include the Standard East Village, Chiltern Firehouse in London, and W Hotel in Hoboken. Dallas will be the sixth Urby, but the first outside the New York area. Current Urby buildings are in New York, Jersey City, Harrison NJ, and Stamford, Connecticut, with Philadelphia, Miami, and Washington DC also in the works.

    The Dallas property will ultimately include more than 900 apartments in three residential towers on a four-acre site. So two more buildings are coming.

    Urby apartments include:

    • bright and airy floor plans
    • walk-in closets with built-in storage
    • sustainable flooring
    • upscale kitchen finishes and appointments
    • large, nearly floor-to-ceiling windows
    • smart technology systems, including Latch keyless smart phone entry and Amazon package lockers

    Some units have balconies.

    “We are delighted to officially begin leasing at Dallas Urby which we believe is a fantastic residential complement to the Design District,” David Barry says in a statement. “We look forward to welcoming our first residents this month and introducing them to our thoughtful design, engaging experiences and community connection.”

    Taste of the Tarmac takes place at Addison Airport on Thursday, April 2.

    A Farmers Branch smokehouse credited with bringing a fine dining approach to barbecue will mark four years in business this weekend with an all-day party and a big menu special. But before that, there's a Spanish wine dinner, a bourbon dinner, and a tasting event for a good cause - all on the same night, so choose wisely. End the week with a matcha pop-up on Easter Sunday. Speaking of Easter, here's our list of where to make brunch reservations in Dallas for the big day.

    Thursday, April 2

    Taste on the Tarmac
    Taking place at the Addison Airport, this fundraiser tasting event benefiting Metrocrest Services Sack Summer Hunger program will feature bites from local high school culinary arts students. Guests will get to vote for their favorite during the sip-and-stroll format on the tarmac. The $75 ticket includes unlimited bites, one drink ticket, live entertainment, and complimentary valet. The event will run from 6-8 pm.

    Garrison Brothers Bourbon Pairing Dinner at Yardbird
    The upscale Southern fried chicken chain will host a four-course pairing dinner with neat pours of Garrison Brothers bourbons. Start with a Texas old fashioned with an amuse bouche of black-eye pea chili before moving to courses of bourbon maple-glazed quail, lemon fish with grilled langoustine, wild board pappardelle with black truffle pearls, and hot banana waffles with candied bacon, peanut butter mousse, and butter pecan panna cotta. Dinner is $125, and begins at 7 pm.
