Inbound on Inwood (IOI)

Inbound on Inwood (IOI) has been transformed into a modern urban industrial project filling a much-needed void in the heart of north Dallas. The transformation includes a full rebrand, major capital improvements, storefront upgrades, new landscaping, and a real brand presence that the market has been lacking.

Centrally located along Inwood Road and parallel to the Tollway within the 95% occupied Metropolitan Addison & Farmers Branch submarkets, Inbound is arguably one of the most visible and easily accessible industrial locations in the DFW Market. IOI encompasses Inbound North and Inbound South campuses, both providing unparalleled access within Dallas.

Inbound South offers convenient direct access from Inwood Road, and visibility from the Tollway. This building is in a class of its own with expansive floor plates and newly updated storefront and exterior paint finishes, enhancing its overall appearance. Designed with spaciousness in mind, Inbound South provides abundant room for larger logistics and distribution tenants to operate seamlessly.

Inbound North boasts exceptional visibility with a prime location on Inwood Road, offering excellent opportunities for prominent signage. The north campus comprises three expansive buildings that are ideally suited for a diverse range of tenants; from food and beverage production, creative industries, to logistics and distribution operations, Inbound North provides the perfect setting. Its strategic access from the Tollway via Landmark Avenue runs right into the heart of the site.

His expertise includes multi-family of varying types (adaptive re-use, three story walk up, five and six story wrap and high-rise). Additionally, Patrick has vast experience with industrial projects, hospitality, civic, educational, historical renovation/adaptive reuse, and sports facilities throughout the United States and foreign countries. Patrick is currently engaged in project management for a hybrid five story wood frame and eight story cold form metal framed multi-family project near the Bishop Arts area of Dallas with a shared six story cast-in place parking garage with residential amenities at the top level of the garage. Concurrently, Patrick is collaborating with this same developer on an approximate 420 unit “urban” style multi-family project in the Historic Fort Worth Stockyards, consisting of five, four-story residential buildings with some tuck under parking and a separate leasing/amenity building. Beyond multi-family Patrick has recently completed or nearing completion of over one and a half million square feet of combined speculative industrial buildings at sites in Roanoke, Midlothian, and Plano. Patrick led the team on the Historic Jefferson Hotel in Downtown St. Louis, originally built in 1904 and later added on to in 1928, the building will be renovated to mixed- use, with retail ground level, a 225-guestroom Marriott AC Hotel and 235-key residential. Additionally, he oversaw the team working on a 24-story high-rise multi-family tower in downtown San Jose, California, with 374 residential units.

It includes 150 residential units, 177 guestrooms and a rooftop pool; several Aspen Heights single family for rent style student housing projects thought out the United States; the Galleries at Park Lane residential in Dallas, Texas, and the historic Sinclair Building in Fort Worth, Texas. The Sinclair is being converted into a hotel, featuring a steak house, rooftop bar and prime location next to downtown Fort Worth’s Sundance Square. Here, he is implementing modern technologies, including power over ethernet lighting. Other experience includes management of school renovation projects for Dallas Independent School District and industrial warehouses adjacent to Andrews Air Force Base. Patrick also worked closely with Aspen Heights for their Daymark project, a 202-bed community southwest of Historic Downtown Waxahachie, for high functioning, intellectually disabled young adults. This project required careful coordination with the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services (TDADS) and the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR).
