If you are looking for a lifestyle that balances the energy of Dallas with the comfort of a boutique residential retreat, 4040 N Hall Street—known as The Haven—is a premier choice in the heart of the Oak Lawn neighborhood.
Since its construction in 2006, this mid-rise condominium has become a staple for residents who want to be steps away from the action while maintaining a sense of privacy. Here is what makes this address one of the most sought-after locations in the 75219 ZIP code.

-
Boutique Scale: With only 48 units across three stories, the building offers a neighborly feel that you won't find in the massive high-rises nearby.
An Architectural "Last of its Kind"
What makes 4040 N Hall Street particularly interesting is its unique structural design—a style that was popular for a brief window in Dallas development but is unlikely to ever be replicated.
The building was built during a time of mid-rise construction where developers found creative ways to maximize density on small, 2-to-3-lot footprints. A time where they were able to classified the design as a "three-story" residential building, but obviously it's not just 3 stories - it's 3 stories on top of a parking garage.
To maximize the living space while complying with height and floor-count restrictions of the time, the developer utilized a unique "raised basement" strategy by moving dirt and measuring building height from the new dirt height - pretty tricky if you ask me, but I like these buildings. There are several of them built along the same concept and I'll link to them below.
