For brothers Young and Mark Yim, opening their bakery in McKinney was a no-brainer.
“We live in McKinney and love McKinney,” Mark Yim said. “We have been seeing how fast North Dallas has expanded, so it was an easy decision to open [here].”

The hotel takes up an entire block on Fairmount between Carlisle and Wolf streets, previously home to apartments and a few quirky old homes that epitomized the kind of character Uptown once personified. A release describes the new hotel, from developer Alamo Manhattan, as a property that is dynamic, crisp, transitional, and elegantly integrated into the historically eclectic neighborhood. Elegantly integrated with everything except for those old houses that used to be in this space.
