Feb 23, 2026My wife and I have lived at Dallas Urby for two years now and we love it here.
We spent our first year in Tower 1 and recently moved into a two-bedroom in Tower 2, and we’re so glad we did. The views are amazing, the layouts are great, and being in the Design District is perfect. There’s so much growth happening around us and no shortage of great places to eat.
The entire Urby crew deserves a shoutout — from the office staff to the resident coordinators to maintenance. Everyone is friendly, responsive, and genuinely cares. The sense of community here is real, and that makes a huge difference.
We’re about a 20-minute walk to Victory Park (more food, more fun) and close to American Airlines Center if you want to catch a Mavs or Stars game. They’re also renovating the walking trail behind the property (supposed to be done June 2026), which we’re excited about. If you're moving in before that, you are only a 15 minute walk away until you reach the Katy Trail entrance. Tequila Social, Frozen Mango Marg with tajin rim ....You're welcome.
I’ve seen a few reviews about noise from the nearby concert venue (formerly Ferris Wheelers, now AM/FM) and those people are correct. Our apartment directly faces it, so here’s my take on it: over the past year, there were three nights total where it was actually annoying — mainly when heavy metal was blasting around 9pm (great for the gym, not as great for winding down lol). Otherwise, country, reggae, and rock have been totally fine. Music always stops by 10pm (never later than about 10:10). We don’t have kids, so on some of those nights we just grab a drink, sit on the balcony, and pretend we bought concert tickets. If that might bother you, Tower 1 or certain Tower 2 layouts don’t face the venue. You can also check the venue's website and see when/what bands are playing if you want to research it yourself.
Overall, Urby checks every box: safe building, secure garage parking, very pet friendly, awesome gym, workspaces for remote work — I mean, it goes on and on. From the design and ambiance to the community vibe, we’re genuinely happy to call this place home.
Highly recommend.
