DALLAS, TX – Crow Holdings
announces plans for the final building of its Old Parkland development on Maple
Avenue in Dallas scheduled to deliver in the first quarter of 2019. United
Kingdom architect, Craig Hamilton,
created the design for the building, along with The Beck Group.
The 90,000-square-foot
office building will be six floors at its highest point and will include a
three level underground garage.
Positioned at the north end of the 9.5-acre campus, the building will be
the final office building at Old Parkland.
In keeping with the rest of the
campus, the building will be classical in design and will include a thematic
sculpture in the front plaza.
The Old Parkland campus
incorporates the historic buildings and grounds of the former Parkland Hospital
that was originally constructed in 1894. The redevelopment of the property
began in 2006 and now features 334,000-square-feet of master-planned, Class-A
office space and remarkable amenities.
The heart of the campus is
the 103-year-old Parkland Hospital that Crow Holdings preserved and renovated
as its corporate headquarters. Crow also restored the Nurses Quarters which
originally served as the nurses’ dormitory. Woodlawn Hall and Reagan Place were
added to complement the original and historic landmark structures.

Four buildings,
collectively called the West Campus, include the iconic copper-domed Parkland
Hall, flanked by Oak Lawn Hall and Commonwealth Hall.
Across the courtyard from
these buildings is the Pavilion, whose design is inspired by Thomas Jefferson’s
Monticello and houses a large, underground debate chamber that hosts high
school and collegiate debates as well as renowned speakers.
“We wanted this last
building to complement the classical architecture on campus while creating
something new and exciting, and we believe Craig Hamilton has done just that,”
said Harlan Crow, chairman and CEO
of Crow Holdings. “We already have commitments for approximately 40% of our new
office space and are delighted the market continues to support our
development.”
The Jeffersonian style
office buildings of the West Campus, surrounded by lush landscapes, a rolling
lawn and shade trees, gives this corporate community a collegial ambience.
Although the buildings are grand in structure, they were platted in close
proximity which fosters interaction among tenants and visitors in the outdoor
areas and community spaces. A spectacular collection of sculptures enhances the
exterior experience and invites reflection on our national heritage.
Crow Holdings’ investments
in the Oak Lawn neighborhood also include the adjacent Maple Avenue District,
which includes new restaurant concepts as well as extensive street and
landscape improvements.
