À propos de ce contenu audio

 Dallas is changing fast. The crew digs into why local coverage feels thinner, what that means for residents and investors, and how decisions downtown ripple across the entire metro.

Real estate touches everything. From arena politics to permitting portals, each decision shifts values, activity, and the Dallas city’s story.

What We Get Into:
If you care about Dallas, real estate, and growth, this is your show.

Episode Recap:
-Downtown at a tipping point:
-Safety + homelessness perceptions vs. on-the-ground improvements
-Functional obsolescence: big towers, thin parking, street-level retail challenges
-How perceptions shape capital flows, leasing, and where people choose to live and work
-Sports as an economic engine:
-What happens to hotels, restaurants, and tax base if the Mavs or Stars leave the core?
-Why modern teams want full control of districts—and what it would take to keep them in Dallas proper
-Big civic chessboard:
-City Hall’s future location (museum piece vs. pragmatic move)
-Convention center overhaul and the risk/reward for downtown vitality
-Signals from City departments: permitting tech upgrades, faster responses, signs of accountability
-Projects to watch: Landmark towers eyeing mixed-use conversions; why resetting basis on older buildings matters; where adaptive reuse beats wrecking balls.

Culture & community sidebars:
-State Fair of Texas 2025 recap low attendance dynamics, Cotton Bowl upgrades
-School district perceptions (HP vs. IB at Woodrow) and why perception = pricing
-Skilled trades boom: electricians, plumbers, welders—the backbone growth Dallas actually needs
