Excited!!!

I waited 18 years for this project to come to fruition and I was able to attend the opening of this famous Dallas landmark Tuesday Morning. Pure Mid Century Brilliance. Now 159 Hotel rooms and 240 residential apartments. Contact me for a private Residential Lease Viewing!

Original completed in 1956 at a cost of $16 million, the Statler Hilton Hotel stands 19 stories high and included 1,000 guest rooms and a ballroom that could accommodate 2,200 standing. The architect, William Tabler of New York, designed a Y-shaped building that employed a flat-slab structural system, the first full application of its kind. The hotel’s sheer size, bold form and exuberate blue panels made it an icon of mid-century Modern design. When the building received its Texas’ Most Endangered Historic Places designation, it was vacant, underutilized and unappreciated. The main factor in saving the building was a loud outcry from the preservation community. That effort was bolstered by endangered designations by Preservation Texas and the National Trust for Historic Preservation who helped call state and national attention to the building and its importance as an outstanding example of mid-century Modern design.

The Statler Hotel & Residences is an iconic hotel of mid-twentieth century design located at1914 Commerce Street in downtown Dallas, Texas. It is located on the edge of the Farmers Market District and adjacent to Main Street Garden Park. The hotel opened in 1956 as The Statler Hilton Dallas and was praised as the first modern American hotel.
