DALLAS—Built in 1969, Park Forest was renovated in 2015. The 48-year-old property located at 3530 Forest will get another new lease on life after its acquisition by United Development Company of Southlake, TX. United Development purchased the three-building Park Forest office complex and will resuscitate the asset totaling 90,000 square feet with a new $10 million retail/self-storage development.
United Development purchased the property on 4 acres from the Miami-based BRI 1815 3530 LLC. The office complex includes a three-story 70,000-square-foot building flanked by two 10,000-square-foot buildings. The three-story Park Forest building will remain as is and some of the tenants in the soon-to-close low-rise buildings will relocate to the 80% occupied three-story building.
Repurposing the property includes razing the two single-story buildings beginning in January 2018 and repurposing that portion of the property into a retail climate-controlled facility managed and operated by Lone Star Self Storage. United Development in partnership with Lone Star will open the facility in fall 2018 and offer 60,000 square feet of climate-controlled storage on three levels.
