Former First National Bank in Dallas converted to Luxury Apartments and Hotel - THE DREVER

Former First National bank building, now dubbed “The Drever,” is a 1.5 million square-foot building that is being renovated into a luxury apartment and hotel building. The building is located in the heart of downtown Dallas near the DART line at 1401 Elm St, Dallas, TX 75202.

The building will retain its historic charm as construction crews will painstakingly remove each marble slab for restoration, a major selling point of the project. The process of modernization will result in excess Grecian marble that will be used for interior spaces. 

The 52 story skyscraper will offer 324 residential units and a hotel with the building will offer 218 rooms along with amenities such as a spa, retail space, and restaurants. The property will also include a Grand Ballroom, an observation deck on the 50th floor, and “A wraparound amenity deck with sight-lines to surrounding buildings. The building will also host a resort quality pool, a spa, a health and fitness room, dog-park and outdoor recreation spaces on the ninth floor.

 The renovation is scheduled to be completed at the end of 2018 and will be open to the public in the first quarter of 2019.
