1505 Elm St

This 16-story boutique high-rise in downtown Dallas was completed in 1957 and reflects midcentury commercial-to-residential conversion character. The George Dahl–designed structure contains primarily one- to three-bedroom condominium residences spread across roughly 60–70 individually owned units. Interiors commonly feature open floorplans, hardwood flooring, granite or marble counters, built-in cabinetry, kitchen islands, wet bars or dry bars, multiple master-suite arrangements, generous walk-in closets, vaulted ceilings in select units, and modern smart-home and wiring upgrades. Many units have corner or picture windows that deliver broad downtown views, and some penthouse-level homes include expansive terraces or balconies. Common areas read as amenity-focused for an urban building of its era: a staffed 24-hour concierge and valet, rooftop pool and terrace with outdoor cooking areas, landscaped courtyards and dog run, fitness center, theater, wine cellar and tasting room, club/game rooms, and dedicated storage spaces. Practical services and building systems have been updated incrementally, with recent mechanical and HVAC work noted. On-site covered parking with valet service is provided; guest parking is accommodated under the valet program. Pet relief areas and outdoor living spaces support urban pet ownership. The building sits within walking distance of cultural institutions, restaurants, shopping, and the DART Akard transit station, placing it squarely in the city’s main street/arts district lifestyle.
