DALLAS — The law firm of Vinson & Elkins plans to move its firm to The Union Dallas in 2018. Vinson & Elkins will lease 80,000 square feet and occupy three floors of the 22-floor office building at RED Development’s mixed-use project located at Field Street and Cedar Springs Road. The Union is a new office, residential and retail project totaling 800,000 square feet that will open in 2017. Phil Puckett and Harlan Davis of CBRE represented Vinson & Elkins in lease negotiations, and John Brownlee and Sarah Hinkley of Peloton represented the landlord, along with Paul Rowsey of RED Development. Vinson & Elkins’ office space in the top three floors of the office tower will include balconies with 360-degree views of Uptown, Downtown, the Arts District, Klyde Warren Park, Victory Plaza and the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge. More than 145 attorneys will occupy the new space. Designed by Dallas-based architect HKS Inc., the project will include a 60,000-square-foot Tom Thumb grocery store on the ground floor. RED Development, the project developer, announced The Union in May 2014, and is also leading the design and construction for the project.
