What is Lincoln Property building in Uptown Dallas? Lincoln is planning The Springs District, a 1.4 million-square-foot project at 2500 Cedar Springs Road in Uptown with an office tower, an apartment tower, and a hotel, targeted for completion by 2030.
If you own a condo or townhome in Uptown, or you have been weighing a move into 75201 or 75204, this is the kind of project worth understanding early. Large developments reshape how a neighborhood lives, from foot traffic on Cedar Springs to what buyers expect from the buildings around it.
What is actually planned at Cedar Springs and Fairmount?
The anchor is 28Hundred Fairmount, an office tower of more than 500,000 square feet. Around it, Lincoln plans a 234-unit apartment tower and a 200-key hotel on the same 4-acre site. Skidmore, Owings & Merrill is the architect, and Suffolk Construction is the general contractor.
The location is the real story. The site sits a short walk from The Crescent, the Katy Trail, and Klyde Warren Park, and less than half a mile from 23Springs, Uptown’s newest office tower. That stretch of Cedar Springs is becoming a corridor where people can live, work, and walk to dinner without getting in the car.
Will The Springs District raise Uptown home values?
Nobody can promise that, and you should be wary of anyone who does. What a project like this tends to do is strengthen the case for walkable, well-located property nearby, especially when it brings a large daytime workforce into the neighborhood.
When I build a pricing case for an Uptown condo, I look at it building by building and block by block. A unit with Katy Trail access or a short walk to Cedar Springs is priced differently from one across McKinney Avenue, even inside the same ZIP code. Projects like this one can widen that gap, so micro-location matters more than ever.
Should Uptown sellers list now or wait until 2030?
Construction is still ahead, and several years of cranes, lane closures, and noise come before the finished towers. If your building faces the site, that is a real consideration for buyers touring in the next few years.
My advice: do not try to time a 2030 completion date. Sell when your own plans call for it, and use the project as part of the story in your marketing. Buyers respond to a clear picture of where the neighborhood is headed, which is why cinematic video and AI-search-optimized listing copy that names nearby landmarks can do real work for an Uptown listing.
What should Uptown buyers ask before making an offer?
Ask what is being built within a few blocks, how long construction will last, and how your view or street access could change. Check the HOA’s reserves and any planned assessments, since buildings competing with brand-new product sometimes need to update their own amenities.
On the negotiation side, construction disruption is a legitimate point to raise. If a unit faces an active site, a seller credit at closing can be a smarter ask than a price cut, because it keeps the recorded sale price intact while still putting money in your pocket.
Investors should note the 234 new apartments. New Class A rental supply can create competition for nearby rentals, so underwrite conservatively.
Frequently asked questions
Where exactly is The Springs District?
It is planned for a 4-acre site at 2500 Cedar Springs Road in Uptown Dallas, near the intersection of Cedar Springs and Fairmount Street, close to The Crescent and the Katy Trail.
When will The Springs District be finished?
Reports indicate all three components, the office tower, apartment tower, and hotel, are expected to be complete by 2030. Timelines on projects this size can shift, so treat that date as a target.
Does a new development nearby hurt my condo’s resale?
Not necessarily. Short-term construction can complicate showings, but finished projects that add jobs, dining, and walkability often support demand for nearby homes over time.
