Dallas High School

DALLAS—The historic Dallas High School building located at 2218 Bryan St. was renovated for commercial use after sitting vacant for 22 years. The building is a three-and-one-half story classical revival structure built in 1907.

After relocating its office to the historic building last month, Perkins+Will held its grand opening there yesterday. The firm occupies more than 39,500 square feet of the building, the entire third floor and part of the second floor. Perkins+Will's new design studio is among the first offices in north Texas to pursue three third-party health and wellness certifications: LEED Platinum, WELL and Fitwel.

Matthews Southwest refurbished the building into approximately 105,000 square feet of office and retail space. Merriman Anderson/Architects is the core/shell and historic preservation architect.
