The Terminal at Katy Trail: Luxury High-Rise Living At Its Best
Share News:

Since opening in mid-September, The Terminal at Katy Trail has created a steady buzz. That buzz got a lot louder when Compass Realtor Michelle Wood recently listed a $10.5 million condo there.
It’s hard for a high-rise to grab my attention with so many gorgeous single-family homes on the market right now. However, this one stopped me from scrolling for multiple reasons.

First of All, It’s Huge
“It’s one of only three combined units in the building, and it occupies the entire west side of the fifth floor, with views of downtown, the Katy Trail, and the Knox Street area,” Wood said.

The Second Important Thing
Gonzalo Bueno, one of the founders of the hot design and architecture firm Ten Plus Three, is responsible for the design. The large open-plan living area features floor-to-ceiling windows and a dining room that opens onto a 499-square-foot terrace overlooking the Katy Trail.
Sliding pocket doors conceal the gourmet kitchen, but really, it’s so gorgeous. Why would you ever hide it?



The primary suite is also massive and includes a sitting area. It has more floor-to-ceiling windows with views of downtown and access to a private terrace from both the bedroom and the bathroom. There is an enormous closet and coffee bar in the primary as well.




Three en-suite secondary bedrooms are located on the north end of the residence, for a total of 5,180 square feet.
Number Three: Location, Location, Location
You can read all about the origin of The Terminal at Katy Trail in Jon Anderson’s post below. A lot has happened in our real estate world in the almost six years since he wrote it. None of us had any idea that this area of town would change so drastically and become an insanely hot neighborhood, but that is now a fact. With Katy Trail at your door, Knox St. restaurants and retail a ten-minute walk down the street, and the Dallas Arts District nine minutes away by car, I ask you to name a better location.
Fourth: An Astonishing Array of Amenities
Anyone who can drop $10.5 million on a high-rise wants the total package. We know lifestyle is as important as a beautiful condo. I don’t think anything can compare to what The Terminal at Katy Trail offers.
Despite everything being at your fingertips in this neighborhood, you really don’t have to leave The Terminal at Katy Trail for anything. Think of an amenity, and it’s here.


The Terminal at Katy Trail has two ground-floor restaurants: Le Passage, a French Asian eatery, and the Rose Café. Both are operated by Dallas-based Travis Hospitality and led by French chef Bruno Davaillon and restaurateur Stephan Courseau. You won’t go hungry.


Work off that fine food at O2, a Pilates and yoga studio. It’s called 02 because fresh air is pumped in after each class. Then head to Alive and Well, where you can enjoy holistic therapies, functional medicine, a wellness spa, a supplement market, and a full-service pharmacy.
You can pamper yourself even more at Knockout Beauty, which offers skincare consultations and an amazing array of products. If you crave some major retail therapy, there’s Wyld Blue, which has everything from clothing, accessories, and jewelry to home goods. I think even Meghan Markle would fangirl over this store!

If you aren’t up for a walk, run, or bike ride on the Katy Trail, relax in the 6,000-square-foot park named for Caroline Rose Hunt.
Luxury high-rise living never looked so good.
Wood has 4205 Buena Vista St., Unit 501 at The Terminal at Katy Trail, available for $10.5 million.
The next Main Street of Central Dallas isn’t centering on a street, but a trail. Wouldn’t it be ironic that the best place to build condos won’t be in either Turtle Creek or Uptown, but between them along the Katy Trail / Turtle Creek Park area? The retired Steve Brown must be spinning around in his chair right now.
I think that’s accurate. People want to be close to nature and able to walk out the door and get on a trail. I’m waiting for real estate along the Santa Fe Trail to explode.
The Katy Trail is Dallas very own “waterfront living”. Having owned 5 houses on the “Trail Intersecting Streets” over the last 28 years, I can honestly say that I saw something like this coming, but it’s even bigger than I imagined.
