The Joule, Luxury Collection, Dallas, TX - coming soon
Joule Hotel.
Dallas, TX. Juno is developing this project on behalf of Tim Headington of Headington Realty and Capital. Located at Main Street between Ervay and Akard, two doors down from the original and flagship Neiman Marcus. Adaptive reuse connected seamlessly to a new build. 130 rooms, restaurant, bar, ballroom and meeting space and spa suite. Entire design by world famous Adam D. Tihany. Restaurant by Charlie Palmer of Aureole and Charlie Palmer Steak fame. Noir Bar and the Pool Bar managed by Pure Las Vegas. Signature pool cantilevers 8 feet over Main Street. The Joule is set to open in the spring of 2008 and will be a Starwood Luxury Collection hotel.
This shouldn't have been a surprise. Gatehouse Capital has their hand in this and is involved in several existing W and upcoming aloft developments.
It has an interesting swimming pool.

Gatehouse
I don't believe Gatehouse is involved in this project anymore. It is no longer on their website. Juno has been the only development firm to have been mentioned in the recent press about the Joule.

Any recent updates on this Hotel? I'm thinking about booking a stay there in 2 weeks. They are accepting reservations starting next Friday.

The Luxury Collection Debuts The Joule
Press Release Source: Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc.
The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts Sets out to Energize the Dallas Skyline with the Debut of The Joule, A Luxury Collection Hotel
Monday June 2, 12:56 pm ET
The Adam D. Tihany-Designed Hotel is Unveiled, Offering Guests Exceptional Experiences in Downtown Dallas; The Joule is Texas' First Luxury Collection Hotel
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE: HOT - News) today announced the opening of The Joule, A Luxury Collection Hotel in downtown Dallas. The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts, a glittering ensemble of more than 65 of the world’s finest hotels and resorts in more than 25 countries. The Joule, a Luxury Collection Hotel, offers the city’s revitalized historic center a power surge of the most welcome kind. Rising 20 stories above street level, the hotel artfully combines a 1920’s Neo-Gothic structure with a sleek, new 10-story tower, topped by a spectacular, cantilevered rooftop pool and bar area. Development by Juno Development, The Joule will play a key role in the city’s downtown renaissance, offering sophisticated travelers world-class dining options, including Charlie Palmer at The Joule, and exhilarating, contemporary surroundings designed by Adam D. Tihany. The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts is a selection of award-winning hotels and resorts offering unique, authentic experiences that evoke lasting, treasured memories.
The meticulous restoration of the original façade is complemented by The Joule’s interior, which has been transformed into a stunning design tour-de-force under the direction of world-renowned designer Adam D. Tihany. Tihany’s striking design begins with the lobby’s centerpiece – an enormous moveable art installation that represents another iconic tribute to energy. The lobby and other common areas will also display pieces of art procured worldwide and contributed by Tim Headington, owner of the hotel. Guest rooms feature compelling configurations, including duplex suites and a penthouse, are all invitingly sleek, with high-end finishes, inventive décor and original furniture designs that maximize the use of space.
From the first glimpse of the rooftop pool – partially suspended beyond the building’s edge – it’s clear that The Joule represents a new era in hospitality in Dallas. The dramatic pool area extends beyond the building’s perimeter, over the streets of Dallas, and features a clear, Plexiglas back wall that affords guests magnificent downtown views. Other features of the hotel include a 1,500 square foot deluxe gym, in-room spa services, library and more than 2,300 square feet meeting space.
The hotel features world-renowned chef and restaurateur Charlie Palmer’s new signature restaurant – Charlie Palmer at The Joule. Palmer’s distinctively American menu allows guests to customize their selections featuring the freshest and most innovative ingredients. Charlie Palmer at The Joule also features Next Vintage, a retail wine store housed in a towering stainless steel and glass structure.
