Victory Park Revisited: $100 Million Redevelopment Begins


DALLAS (Dallas Business Journal) – Work began Wednesday on the $100 million redevelopment of Victory Park, a project intended to enhance the neighborhood's walkability and connectivity.
The initial phase involves adding raised crosswalks and signalized crosswalks, and widening sidewalks to accommodate large outdoor patios. This phase is expected to be complete later this year.
Future phases will bring more retail, restaurants, entertainment and office space, as well as enhance storefronts and landscaping.
Dallas City Council member Adam Medrana said, "The hope is that these improvements will attract businesses and residents to the new development, which will in turn allow this thriving area to reach its full potential."
