Dallas’ iconic 50-story Reunion Tower and the connecting 1,120-room Hyatt Regency Dallas are owned by Hunt-Reunion, Inc., a subsidiary of Hunt Realty Investments, Inc.
The land at Reunion was originally acquired by Hunt in 1975 and consisted of approximately 21 acres of unimproved land and 10 acres of air rights within the Reunion development in downtown Dallas.
In 2012, the company successfully completed a land swap with the city of Dallas, exchanging the portion of Hunt Realty’s land holdings at Reunion, known as the Cockrell Tract, for a key tract of land that was the former site of Reunion Arena—also located in the Reunion development.
Today, Hunt Realty owns a contiguous assemblage of 32.5 acres and leases 8.6 acres in downtown Dallas for a total assemblage of 41.1 acres, one of the largest assemblages of undeveloped land in the downtown area of a major city in the United States. This site represents excellent future development potential for a strategic use that will complement and enhance the company’s holdings within the Reunion district.
The Hyatt Regency Dallas is managed by the Hyatt Corporation, and it is asset-managed by Woodbine Development Corporation, a 40-year-old, full-service real estate company that specializes in developing and managing hotels/resorts, land and mixed-use projects. For more information, visit the Hyatt Regency Dallas website or call (214) 651-1234.
