FROM THE PRESIDENT'S P.O.V.

Yes, you could have your Ferrari delivered to your desk.

I can explain. There exists a live-work building in North Texas that defies definition. It is One Addison Place, minutes from Dallas and a unique experience that combines living, working and playing across five floors. It is outfitted with a retail space, car showcase, office space and private penthouse — but it could be easily evolved for other uses, including as a family office, art gallery, private museum or anything you can dream up.

The aesthetic is luxuriously industrial, with large windows, exposed ductwork and brick walls contrasted with gleaming floors and impeccable finishes. The second floor is an engineering marvel, designed to house a large car collection. In fact, every level can accommodate multiple cars via elevator delivery — hence my deskside Ferrari dream.

The penthouse is the crowning jewel, with a fireplace, wine cellar, theater, two bedrooms and two terraces. The panoramic views of Addison, including planes taking off and landing at Addison Airport, are breathtaking.

This spectacularly original place is at the crossroads of Addison Circle, the Dallas North Tollway office corridor and the forthcoming mixed-use game-changer, Addison Junction. Our equally unique Commercial Division has the listing.
