5 mixed-use office projects for 2025
Bank of America Tower at Parkside
Dallas, Texas
The Bank of America Tower at Parkside soars 30 stories above Klyde Warren Park in Dallas, Texas, standing as a striking new landmark to Dallas’ Uptown district. The central goal of the design was to humanize the office building typology, with an amenity-filled podium that engages the streetscape, with workspaces located above.
A gridded façade differentiates the project from other glass towers and blurs the line between hospitality and commercial, while the two-story block segments, varied in scale and alignment, emphasize the project’s staggered form. Landscaped terraces are integrated throughout the tower, elevating the natural connection to the park.
At the heart of the tower lies the Sky Lobby, situated over 100 feet above street level, offering panoramic views of Uptown and Downtown Dallas. This expansive space features a coffee bar, seating, and an outdoor terrace. Each floor employs a 100% outside air economizer with no air recirculation between floors, preventing cross-contamination. MERV 13 filters, often used by hospitals, remove airborne bacteria and allergens, while optional upgrades like ultraviolet or bipolar ionization systems provide additional protection.
