With this mixed-use development and Uber’s arrival, Deep Ellum will become more of a 24-hour neighborhood instead of a weekend and nightlife destination. “One thing Deep Ellum has lacked is employees, as one cannot have the live, work, play environment without the work. “Uber fell in love with the urban aspect of The Epic,” says Westdale CEO Joe Beard. Uber will occupy the entire 470,000 square feet of office space in the new tower.

The new building, better known as The Epic II, is the second office tower in Westdale’s eight-acre mixed-use project known as The Epic–offering 55,000 square-feet of restaurant and retail space, 251,000 square feet of office, the 164-room Pittman Hotel and The Hamilton luxury apartments.

Westdale Real Estate Investment and Management broke ground on a 23-story tower in Deep Ellum that will soon serve as a general hub and Dallas headquarters for Uber Technologies, bringing with it 3,000 jobs and more than $75 million in capital investment. Westdale’s Joe Beard and Dennis Trimarchi
