Goldman Sachs will occupy almost 1 million square feet of offices in its new campus north of downtown Dallas.
Architects and developers working on the New York-based financial firm’s project disclosed more details about the new Dallas offices at a Friday morning design meeting at Dallas’ city hall.
Goldman Sachs will be the tenant in the first three buildings in Hunt Realty’s planned North End redevelopment on Field Street just north of Woodall Rodgers Freeway.
The nine-story to 15-story office towers will include about 960,000 square feet of space and will sit on 3 acres next to a new park.
Architects Henning Larsen — founded in Copenhagen — and Hart Howerton of New York are designing Hunt Realty’s project, which will house about 5,000 Goldman Sachs workers.
Henning Larsen’s recent North American projects include the city of Raleigh’s new civic tower, Toronto’s Etobicoke Civic Center and a new office tower in San Francisco’s Mission Rock development.
Construction will start on the Dallas project in early 2023 and will be finished in early 2026.
About 3,000 contractor employees will work on the development. Balfour Beatty is the general contractor.
Parking for the offices will be in an underground garage.
A landscaped “paseo” will connect the park to Field Street. And the offices will have “planting on building terraces and rooftops for biophilia and biodiversity,” according to the presentation to Dallas’ Urban Design Peer Review Board.
Hunt Realty has owned the development site since the mid 1990s.
“Today is an important day for Dallas as we move forward with our redevelopment of this major parcel of land at one of the key intersections in our urban core,” Hunt Realty Investment’s president Colin Fitzgibbons said in a statement. “We know that this is just the beginning of what will surely be a transformational development for our city and we are pleased and proud to be a part of such an amazing project that will bring jobs, housing and commercial businesses to Dallas.”
Dallas’ city council agreed in June to give Goldman Sachs and Dallas’ Hunt Realty more than $18 million in economic incentives to build the office project at 2323 North Field St. next to the Perot Museum.
The Goldman Sachs buildings are the first phase of a larger 11-acre mixed-use development Hunt Realty is planning on the current site of the North End Apartments next to the Perot Museum.
New office, residential, retail and hotel buildings will be constructed around a 1.5-acre central park.
Zoning for the building site allows towers as tall as almost 80 floors.
