The Block
Richardson, TX
34,000 S.F. of Retail and
395 Luxury Apartments


The Block transformed 25 acres of vacant land and a deteriorating retail center into a thriving shopping area and residential community, located in the Telecom Corridor of Dallas’ Metroplex. For the first time, area residents embraced a medium-density residential development for their community of older, single-family homes.

The development team employed a grid system for the 25-building site in order to integrate both residential and retail components with the surrounding neighborhoods. The upscale architecture and the master plan accomplish this with one-story four-plexes providing a buffer from the residential homes and elevations gradually increasing to three-story buildings deeper into the development.
