In the five months since our last construction update on the project, the 45-storey AMLI Fountain Place has topped out in Dallas. The tallest building constructed in the Texas city in over 30 years pays deference to its analogous neighbour, Pei Cobb Freed's iconic Fountain Place, which was completed in 1986.
Original plans by Pei Cobb Freed included a second tower rotated 90 degrees from the original 63-storey volume. The project fell victim to the oil, banking and real estate troubles of the 1980s and was never realized. The new AMLI Fountain Place, designed by Page Southerland Page, is a spiritual successor to the failed scheme.
Replacing a surface parking lot, the 367-unit residential tower takes cues from the sharp angles and emerald-tinted windows of Fountain Place, but two columns of inset balconies reveal the tower's internal use. The building's multi-storey podium will be crowned by an 18,000-square-foot amenities deck.
Crews conducted their final concrete pour atop AMLI Fountain Place in July 2019. With cladding nearly covering the entire structure, construction is expected to conclude in early 2020.
