Crescent Property Services LLC announced today that popular burger restaurant, Shake Shack, is slated to open in The Crescent’s newly proposed park area at the corner of McKinney Avenue and Pearl Street. According to the release:
“The critically acclaimed, modern day ‘roadside’ burger spot which began in 2001 as a hot dog cart in New York City – will open its first Dallas location at The Crescent in Uptown Dallas. The restaurant, to be situated in The Crescent’s newly proposed park area at the corner of McKinney Avenue and Pearl Street, will have indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the lushly landscaped grounds. Shake Shack, which ranked #25 on the Zagat 2014 list of most popular restaurants in New York City, is expected to open in 2016. Mitch Traub of The Retail Connection represented Shake Shack, and Jack Gosnell of CBRE/UCR represented Crescent.”
“Shake Shack is a home run for The Crescent. It will open just as The Crescent finalizes its first major renovation in three decades, and it will launch our new corner park in a big way, helping it to become a very energetic and vibrant spot,” said John Zogg, managing director of Crescent Real Estate Equities, LLC, in an email. “Based on the reception that Shake Shack gets at its restaurants across the world, we think those who live, work and visit Uptown are going to love it.”
