GAEDEKE GROUP TO RENOVATE OFFICE BUILDING IN DALLAS

DALLAS — Gaedeke Group LLC will soon begin $3.8 million in renovations on its 128,795-square-foot Oak Lawn Plaza office building. Mark Dilworth of Dallas-based Morrison, Dilworth + Walls is the architect for the project. Construction is slated to begin in October and will take an estimated eight months to complete. The 1.5-acre property was built in the early 1980s and is located at 2501 Oak Lawn Plaza just off the Dallas North Tollway. The redesign calls for a 3,000-square-foot expansion of the lobby, with the ceiling height raised to 25 feet. Exterior walls will be redressed with a 25-foot glass curtain wall and 5-by-13-foot vertical panels. The interior redesign will feature white marble walls and basalt stone on the floors, replacing dark marble and granite. Other planned features include commissioned artwork, a high-tech security desk, WiFi furniture and an updated parking garage.
