WHAT’S UP WITH NEIGHBORHOOD BUSINESSES

Coming Soon

A Bishop Arts developer requested a zoning change last month that would allow for uses besides residential, office and retail. EXXIR CAPITAL is seeking to construct a hotel, event center, neighborhood market and art-production facility south of the BISHOP ARTS DISTRICT . A year ago, Exxir Capital demolished apartments and homes at the 4.5-acre property to construct four- and five-story buildings, as well as an underground parking garage.

At SYLVAN THIRTY , former fashion designer LUCY ZANG is planning to open an eco-friendly nail salon. PINK PEDI will offer services ranging from manicures and pedicures to eyebrow waxing and custom nail art, but without hazardous fumes and toxins. “Our goal is to go beyond the typical nail salon and offer a unique, memorable experience by providing quality services that are safe for both our customers and our employees,” Dang says.

OF DIRT , the building at 408 W. Seventh St. is available for weddings, parties and corporate events.

The paleta shop ENCANTO POPS and boutique DLM SUPPLY have found homes near SPINSTER RECORDS at the shopping center on West Davis at Tyler.

After five years, Oak Cliff-based fashion business WINTER LENNON finally has its own boutique. Located at 606 N. Edgefield in front of the company’s warehouse, Winter Lennon offers dresses, boot socks, T-shirts and more.
