Weir’s Plaza is bringing a world-class office and retail experience through an iconic building that speaks to the history of the neighborhood as well as the future.
Ultimately, this building is the product of caring deeply about the future of the neighborhood, as well as the people who live and work there now.
"The Soda Fountain Building is a much-loved institution that has served the neighborhood for generations. Although not a legally designated landmark, it is certainly a community landmark.
Accordingly, it was important to keep the building, and do so in a way that honored its status in the community. As such, one of the essential architectural issues became how to combine a 2-story masonry building from the early 1900s with a 12-story mixed-use building designed for the 21st century – and to achieve a unified, architecturally harmonious development.”
The Knox District has the unique ability to connect seamlessly with the vibrant urban metropolis while staying true to its historic roots. It has evolved into more than just another trendy Dallas destination; Knox Street is a place with a heart and soul and where the history of the neighborhood is embraced.
Weir’s Plaza is a byproduct of the Weir family’s extraordinary insight— they’ve watched businesses come and go since the 1940’s— and their extraordinary commitment to see the Knox neighborhood thrive. As the longest property owners still in residence, the Weir family is profoundly faithful to the Knox District legacy.
