OTL has designed and built $200 million worth of "show fountains" across the U.S., including a special effects version at Texas Live! in Arlington, an interactive water feature at Dallas' Klyde Warren Park, and the Illuvia fountain at Grand Prairie's EpicCentral.
Downtown Dallas' Klyde Warren Park is slated to get a $155 million expansion, with 1.7 new acres extending the deck park over Woodall Rodgers Freeway via a new build-out between St. Paul and Akard. According to the Dallas Morning News, the park's leaders aim to re-bid the project—which was delayed by the pandemic—in 2025 and open the new addition by end of 2028.
Lincoln Property Company is poised to launch a landmark development in the heart of Uptown Dallas. The four-acre project will merge premier office space, luxury living, high-end retail, a five-star hotel, and green space.
"This move represents a significant milestone for our business and an elevation of our workplace," said Jim Thompson, Preston Hollow's chairman and CEO.
Meow Wolf Grapevine’s “The Real Unreal” experiential art exhibition is opening on July 14 after years of preparation. To raise awareness—and offer prizes and free tickets—"interdimensional aerobic beings" known as Meow Wolf mall walkers will be popping up around Dallas-Fort Worth today through Monday. See where you can encounter one.
"Round the Bend," a textile banner of abstract geometric forms, was created by artist Rachel Hayes. It will be on display April 19-30 as part of the park's celebration of Dallas Arts Month. Inspired by "cascading color fields and landscapes," it shimmers in sunlight and ripples in wind—and you're invited to walk along it.
Commercial real estate giant CBRE Group—which moved its headquarters from California to Uptown Dallas in 2020—plans to move its HQ just a couple blocks away to the Park District complex, where it will have striking views of Klyde Warren Park below and the downtown Dallas skyline just to the south.
That's according to a report by Steve Brown in the Dallas Morning News, who says CBRE will be leasing two and a half floors of office space totaling 67,000 square feet that were originally snapped up by its coworking business, Hana, in 2019.
Klyde Warren Park is the jewel in the crown of downtown Dallas, and now it's gotten some extra sparkle. The park has been ranked No. 5 of all city parks in the U.S. in USA Today's 10Best Readers' Choice list for 2023. "Perched atop a sunken freeway, this nationally acclaimed 5-acre oasis is just one of the examples of what makes Dallas' downtown area so dynamic," USA Today writes.
“The Mayor’s Tree” is 48 feet tall, weighs nearly 5,000 pounds, and will sparkle with 37,520 multi-colored LED lights and 3,836 ornaments. Following the tree-lighting ceremony this Saturday, it will stand on the south end of Hart Boulevard—the park’s main pedestrian thoroughfare— through January 9.
Carpenter Park, a 5.7-acre space that runs along I-345 near Deep Ellum on the eastern edge of downtown "will distinguish our center city for decades to come," said the chairman of Parks for Downtown Dallas when construction kicked off in 2020. The vision is now a reality.

"It's not an idea—it's happening," says April Allen, president of the Southern Gateway Public Green Foundation.
Southern Gateway Park will be an engineering marvel over I-35E, with five acres of wooded slopes, water features, rocky escarpments, a restaurant/retail complex hidden under a hilltop, and one of the most awesome kids' playgrounds in North Texas. But its greatest achievement may be to make Oak Cliff whole again—and to bring all of Dallas together.
STEM in the Park was hosted by Millennials for STEM, a foundation by the Dallas Millennial Club. The event had different STEM zones like robotics or VR for parents and students from grades kindergarten to 12th to experience the different aspects of STEM in a fun, engaging way.
Through its TxN Certification program, Texan By Nature will highlight efforts that are "benefiting the state’s people, prosperity, and natural resources."
