Plans have emerged for a key piece of property in Uptown Dallas. Proper Hospitality—known for its design-driven luxury hotels in Austin, Los Angeles, Santa Monica, and more—is bringing a hotel, residential, and wellness concept to a 4-acre parcel at 2500 Cedar Springs Road. Proper, which is partnering with Lincoln Property Co., aims to bring the 34-story tower online by 2029.
It will include 200 guest rooms and suites as part of a hotel that will also feature three restaurants, five bars and lounges, a rooftop pool deck, and 22,000 square feet of event space.
The residences will comprise 80 units ranging from one to four bedrooms, as well as some one- and two-story penthouses. Amenities will include a private rooftop pool, dining terrace, and owner’s lounge. The priority-interest list for residential units is set to open in early 2026.
The heart of the project will be a 15,000-square-foot wellness center and 6,000-square-foot members-only club. It will offer holistic therapies and fitness options, as well as lounge and terrace space and cultural programming. The club will include a restaurant, pool, bar, lounge, and work areas, as well as access to the wellness center.
“Dallas Proper brings together design, wellness, food, and a deep connection to community,” said Brian De Lowe, Proper co-founder and president. “This is more than a hotel or residential offering. It’s a fully integrated destination for how people want to live and gather today.”
Lincoln acquired the Uptown tract, bounded by Fairmount Street, in the spring of 2024 with plans to develop a Class-A mixed-use project on the site. At the time, the vision included roughly 400,000 square feet of office space, as well as luxury residential, hotel, and retail uses.
“This site gave us the rare opportunity to shape a meaningful part of Uptown,” said Lincoln Property Co. Co-CEO Clay Duvall in a statement shared this week. “Proper’s track record in Texas and beyond—and their approach to design, lifestyle, and wellness—made them the ideal partner for creating a landmark.”
Designs call for cascading terraces with shaded outdoor amenities and floor-to-ceiling glass. New York-based Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) is the architect, with celebrity designer Kelly Wearstler handling interiors.
“I’m thrilled to bring the Proper spirit to Dallas,” Wearstler said in a statement. “Dallas has incredible vitality, expressive, dynamic, and full of possibility. Our vision for the hotel and residences will channel that energy into spaces for living, wellness, and play that feel deeply connected to Uptown, yet unmistakably Proper.”
