Owners of West End Marketplace plan reboot of building

The owners of downtown Dallas long-vacant West End Marketplace are considering a plan to revive the building as a mixed-use project.

The 240,000-square-foot shopping center and movie complex has been closed since 2006.

Recent proposals to convert the huge building in Dallas West End historic district into a hotel or office space havent gotten off the ground.

Now the owners have hired The Retail Connection to market the eight-story building.

They have been engaged by us to find retail tenants, said Bill Nabors of ECOM Real Estate, which represents the owners of the West End Marketplace. There is a lot of stuff going on but nothing we are ready to announce.

We are looking at everything right now, Nabors said.

The West End Marketplace opened in 1986 as Dallas first festival marketplace retail center.

The vacant warehouse building with wood-beam construction was converted into shops, eateries and entertainment venues.

An interior atrium was built and a 10-screen cinema occupied part of the building.

A Planet Hollywood nightclub and restaurant was on the ground floor.
