At $50–$100 per application, guessing wrong adds up.

Rents & Specials ## What Downtown High Rises Cost Right Now Downtown has the widest price spread of any Dallas corridor, and that's what makes it interesting. At the low end, **The Continental at Mercantile Place** starts at $1,049, **The Kirby** (a 1913 building converted in 2017) at $1,143, **Main 3 Downtown** at $1,204 and **Manor House** at $1,230. Several of these carry 1 to 2 months free, so their net effective rent drops further. The new A+ towers sit higher. **The Sinclair Residences** (2024, 49 floors) runs $2,420 to $10,615 with 1.5 months free. **AMLI Fountain Place** (45 floors) runs $2,222 to $11,987. **Atelier Tower** (41 floors) starts at $1,840 and is offering 2 months free plus a look-and-lease credit, which is unusual for a tower at that height. At the top, **The National** at 1401 Elm St is the tallest rental in Dallas at 52 floors, with rents reaching $17,000. It's a 1964 tower renovated in 2020, so it carries a C+ asset class even though residents rate it 4.1 stars. That gap between class and experience is exactly the kind of thing we explain before you tour.

Building by Building ## How the Downtown Towers Break Down **New A+ towers.** **The Sinclair Residences** (405 N Ervay, ZRS, 2024, 49 floors, 4.7 stars), **Atelier Tower** and **Atelier Lofts** (1801 N Pearl St, 41 floors), **AMLI Fountain Place** (45 floors), **East Quarter Residences** (20 floors, 2 months free), **Peridot** (2023, 11 floors, 4.9 stars) and **Modera St. Paul** (2024, 16 floors, 1.5 months free). These deliver modern finishes, full amenity decks and the best views in the corridor. **Mid-century and 1970s towers.** **The National** (1964/2020, 52 floors), **Mosaic Dallas** (1952/2007, 31 floors, 2 months free plus $500 look-and-lease), **Gables Republic Tower** (2006, 36 floors), **One Dallas Center** (1978, 30 floors) and **Manor House** (1965/2007, 25 floors). Big floor plates, real height and often lower rent per square foot. **Historic conversions.** **The Kirby** (1913), **Dallas Power & Light Lofts** (1931, 14 floors), **Lone Star Gas Lofts** and **Lone Star Gas Lofts Phase II** (1931, 12 floors), **1900 Pacific Residences** (1952) and **The Statler Residences** (19 floors, 1.5 months free). Tall ceilings, original architecture and character you can't get in new construction, with fewer amenities. **Main Street boutique.** **The Drakestone** (2019, 20 floors, 4.5 stars, 1 month free) and **Main 3 Downtown** (17 floors, 1 month free) sit right on Main Street's restaurant row. Commutes & Transit ## Getting Around from Downtown Downtown is the **DART rail hub**: every light rail line runs through it, with stations like **Akard Station**, **Pearl/Arts District Station**, West End and Convention Center. If you want to live without a car, or use one only on weekends, Downtown and Uptown are the two corridors where that's realistic. The **AT&T Discovery District** anchors foot traffic around the AT&T headquarters, and **Main Street Garden**, the **Dallas Arts District** and the **Dallas Farmers Market** give each pocket of Downtown its own feel. Klyde Warren Park sits on the northern edge over Woodall Rodgers Freeway, a short walk from Atelier and AMLI Fountain Place. For drivers, I-35E, I-30 and Woodall Rodgers ring the core, so getting out of Downtown is quick in most directions. Parking is the trade-off: some conversions have limited garage space or rely on nearby structured lots, which is why we confirm parking terms per building before you tour. Fit Check ## Who Downtown Suits Best Downtown suits **transit-first renters** and anyone commuting to an office in the core, including the AT&T campus. It's also the best corridor for **budget renters who still want a real high rise**: four communities start under $1,250. Renters who love architecture tend to prefer the conversions. Renters who want the tallest towers and biggest views should look at The National, The Sinclair, AMLI Fountain Place and Atelier. It suits you less well if you want a quiet, tree-lined residential street outside your lobby, or if you'll drive daily and need a guaranteed reserved space. Those renters often end up in Turtle Creek or Knox-Henderson instead. What Renters Tell Us ## What Our Renters Tell Us > "I wanted a high rise under $1,500. They found a Downtown loft with two months free that I never saw on the portals." Placeholder D.Downtown Dallas > "Transferring from Chicago with three weeks to find a place, I got five buildings near my office, live video tours, and signed without a second trip." Placeholder A.Downtown Dallas Areas We Cover ## Inside the Core: ZIP Codes, Rail Lines and Landmark Buildings Downtown Dallas covers ZIP codes 75201 and 75202, and its resident count roughly doubled from 5,291 in the 2010 Census to an estimated 10,766 by 2017 as office buildings became apartments and new towers rose. That history is why 1910s loft conversions sit a block from 2024 glass towers. The **Dallas Power & Light** building shows the trade-off well: a 1931 Art Deco tower by Lang & Witchell, named a Dallas Landmark in 2003 and converted to apartments by 2005. Conversions like it offer tall ceilings and character, while garages and amenity decks are usually stronger at **The Sinclair**, **Atelier** and **AMLI Fountain Place**. Getting around is the core's strength. DART light rail and the Trinity Railway Express meet here, with stations at **Akard**, **St. Paul**, **Pearl/Arts District** and **West End**. Oncor delivers power citywide but doesn't sell it, so you pick your own retail electric provider when you set up the account.

We track 21 high rise communities in Downtown Dallas, from 11-story buildings like Peridot and The Continental to The National at 52 floors. ### What is the cheapest high rise in the core? The Continental at Mercantile Place starts at $1,049 with 2 months free. The Kirby starts at $1,143, Main 3 Downtown at $1,204 and Manor House at $1,230. ### What is the tallest apartment building in the city center? The National at 1401 Elm St, at 52 floors. The Sinclair Residences (49 floors) and AMLI Fountain Place (45 floors) are next. ### Which buildings are historic conversions? The Kirby (1913), Dallas Power & Light Lofts (1931), both Lone Star Gas Lofts buildings (1931), 1900 Pacific Residences (1952) and Mosaic Dallas (1952) are conversions of older commercial buildings. The Dallas Power & Light tower is a 1931 Art Deco design by Lang & Witchell and was designated a Dallas Landmark in 2003. ### Can I live in Downtown Dallas without a car? Yes, more easily than almost anywhere in the city. DART light rail and the Trinity Railway Express all serve the core, with stations at Akard, St. Paul, Pearl/Arts District, West End and Union, and Uptown's free M-Line trolley starts at St. Paul Station. ### Which towers have the best specials right now? Atelier Tower (2 months free plus look-and-lease), Atelier Lofts, East Quarter Residences, Mosaic Dallas, Manor House and The Continental are each offering 2 months free. ### What are the newest towers in the core? The Sinclair Residences and Modera St. Paul both delivered in 2024, and Peridot opened in 2023. ### Why does The National have a C+ class but a 4.1-star rating? Class reflects the asset: the building dates to 1964, even with its 2020 renovation. Ratings reflect how residents feel about living there. Plenty of older Downtown towers out-rate new ones. ### Is parking included at conversion buildings? It varies. New towers usually have attached garages with monthly fees, while some conversions have limited on-site parking. We confirm the true monthly total for each building. ### Is the core a good fit for corporate transferees? Yes, especially if your office is in the core or near the AT&T Discovery District. The rail hub also gives quick DART access toward DFW and Love Field connections. ### Do I choose my own electric provider? Usually, yes. Oncor delivers power across Dallas but doesn't sell it, so you pick a retail electric provider and open the account in your name before move-in. Some buildings bundle utilities, so we confirm the setup at each tower. Still have a question? Send it with your questionnaire and a licensed locator will answer by text.
