Who We Are – What We Do

uptown-map Uptown, Dallas continues to be the economic engine that drives Dallas forward and Uptown Dallas, Inc. is the public improvement district (PID) company that manages and enhances the public realm.

The Public Improvement District (PID) is funded by special assessments paid for and voted on by property owners and in 1993, Uptown Dallas, Inc. (UDI) was established, creating Dallas’ first live-work-play community. Of 14 PIDS in Dallas, Uptown Dallas Inc. continues to have one of the lowest assessment rates at 4.5 cents per $100 valuation. These assessment dollars have paid for the management and enhancement of public safety and security; the design and construction of public infrastructure improvements; the maintenance of common areas, lighting, pedestrian amenities and linkages that make Uptown one of the most desirable places in all of Dallas.

These improvements are the competitive advantage behind the success of Uptown which have led to the highest office rents and occupancies in the city and one of the best multi-family markets in the region.
