About Victory Tower
The Victory Tower, also referred to as Mandarin Oriental Dallas Hotel & Residences, is a skyscraper under on-hold status in the new Victory Park neighborhood of Dallas, Texas. The building is the tallest structure under construction in the city, and is the only building planned to rise over 400 feet (122 meters) under construction in Dallas. Upon completion, the Victory Tower would stand as the 8th-tallest building in the city, rising to a height of 650 feet (198 m) with 43 floors. The Victory Tower's official groundbreaking took place in late 2006, with construction underway by early 2007. The tower, designed by the New York City-based Kohn Pedersen Fox architectural firm, was originally proposed as the centerpiece building project of the new Victory Park development in Dallas, along with one other skyscraper. The other tower, One Victory Tower, was planned to rise 633 feet (193 m) and 40 floors on the lot adjacent to the Victory Tower. However, the project was not approved by the city, and was subsequently canceled. According to an unnamed source at Hillwood Development, the Victory Tower project has been placed "on hold until 2011" as of March 13, 2008.
