Museum Tower (Dallas) - Groundbreaking

Groundbreaking

Originally proposed on June 15, 2007, developers released a tentative groundbreaking date of late 2007, but the recession of 2008 put those plans on what seemed to be a permanent halt.

However, on June 15, 2010, the Wall Street Journal reported that developers had secured financing through the Dallas Police & Fire Pension System to move ahead with Museum Tower. Asubsequent review of the Pension System's meeting minutes indicates that the pension fund is the owner of the entire project.

The project broke ground on Thursday, June 24, 2010. The building was topped out in early 2012, opened later that year, and was completed in January 2013.
