Mid-Rise Serves as an Important Gateway Between Historic Deep Ellum and Downtown Dallas
Serving as an important bridge between the low-rise, pedestrian-scaled Deep Ellum historic neighborhood and Dallas’ downtown high-rises, the new Epic I office building is creatively stacked in two to five-story blocks to mediate the two urban scales.
To achieve a number of important objectives—including neutrality, energy performance and blending into the urban fabric—Perkins&Will, Dallas, selected Solarban® 90Starphire® glass from Vitro Architectural Glass for the unitized curtainwall on all four elevations of the main tower and a smaller ground level retail section contains Solarban® 72 glass from Vitro Architectural Glass.
