Details for an expanded vision of Trinity Groves have become richer.
At completion, the future Trinity Groves as presented by Nebraska real estate firm Goldenrod Cos., architect Gensler and landscape architect OJB includes more than 5,000 residential units, nearly 1,000 hotel rooms and over 2.6 million square feet of office space.
Trinity Groves along Singleton Boulevard in West Dallas has become one of the region’s signature foodie developments since an investment group including Stuart Fitts, Phil Romano and Larry “Butch” McGregor began assembling parcels in the area in 2005. That has come with hundreds of apartments and other retail.
Last year, Goldenrod purchased nearly 90 properties across more than 35 acres in and around Trinity Groves, situated at the foot of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge.
Much of the land was already zoned to include high-rise offices and hotels, and one of the parcels was even floated as a destination for Amazon’s HQ2 in 2017.
A first phase for a new Trinity Groves master plan calls for approximately 2,419 dwelling units and 788 hotel rooms, according to a master plan presentation presented before Dallas’ Urban Design Peer Review Panel. The group, made up of local design, planning and engineering professionals, provides urban design advice to city staff and other entities.
The first phase involves more than 1 million square feet of office space, 126,000 square feet of retail and 9,571 parking spaces, the presentation shows.
Open space and park space are key fixtures in the overall master plan’s design, blending together the existing and future phases of the development into a highly walkable environment that blends Trinity Groves with surrounding natural assets such as the Trinity Park Conservancy.
Bioretention, porous paving and detention ponds have been incorporated to help in water mitigation and aid in self-watering.
