Park Heritage will be situated in one of the busiest metroplexes in Dallas-Fort Worth at the intersection of the LBJ Freeway and Preston Road, providing convenient access to the area’s major thoroughfares that are traveled by over 350,000 cars per day.

“We are thrilled to start construction on Park Heritage and bring renewed energy and an iconic project to an area of Dallas that is ready for it,” said Bill Guthrey, SVP and Partner at KDC. “This project will be the new centerpiece of the LBJ Corridor already known for its bustling business district and the Galleria.”

Park Heritage will be the new destination in North Dallas and will connect Dallas’ North suburbs with Uptown and Downtown. Exemplifying the live-work-play-stay lifestyle, Park Heritage will feature office space suited for Fortune 500 corporate headquarters, luxury residences, shopping, dining, entertainment and a hotel within an inviting and walkable district.

“We are very excited to be part of the transformation of the former Valley View Mall site,” said Charles Elliott, President, Toll Brothers Apartment Living. “The collaboration with Seritage, KDC and other leading developers, will make Midtown Dallas a vibrant new addition to the city.”

This large-scale development will start with the demolition of the former Sears building and automotive center, followed by significant infrastructure investment and the road network.
