Still struggling to recover from a pandemic that turned parts of downtown Dallas into a ghost town, center city proponents are looking to the future.
Major real estate projects and public sector improvements were the focus of economic development group Downtown Dallas Inc.’s annual meeting Tuesday.
“We cannot deny the impact of the last year, the challenges particularly faced by our small businesses and our quieter streets,” said Downtown Dallas Inc. CEO Kourtny Garrett. “Four billion dollars of development continues to move forward. Cranes are still flying high over downtown Dallas.”
