The W Dallas Victory Hotel and Residences
The W Dallas Victory Hotel and Residences

Victory Park is a master planned development northwest of downtown Dallas, Texas (USA) and north of SH Spur 366 (Woodall Rodgers Freeway). It is along Interstate 35E and thus part of the Stemmons Corridor, but is a part of Uptown. The US$3 Billion project, at 75 acres (0.30 km²), is just north of the West End Historic District of downtown Dallas. At full build-out, the project will contain more than 4,000 residences and 4,000,000 square feet (370,000 ) of office and retail space.

About

Dallas' Victory Park

The project includes the American Airlines Center and the new 33-story W Dallas Victory Hotel and Residences. Other structures are planned such as the 43-story One Victory Tower, high-rise apartments, condominium towers, as well as retail and green spaces. The centerpiece of Victory Park's retail space is LFT, a new 30,000 concept store from Ort Varona and Glenn Singer, the people behind Dallas' Octane and Premium93. LFT, a contemporary "boutique department store" will showcase designer fashion by the likes of Paul Smith, Z Zegna, James Perse, Chip & Pepper, J. Lindeberg, and Diane von Furstenberg. Part of the development will include an area (Victory Plaza) reminiscent of Times Square in New York City (though definitely not on that scale). This area contains the largest and greatest number of digital billboards overlooking a plaza anywhere in the world and the plaza features studios for WFAA-TV, a local broadcast station. Among many new restaurants from national and local operators will be Nove, N9NE Steakhouse, Craft, Kenichi, Luna de Noche, La Condesa Tequila Bar and a new Gastropub concept.
