UP FRONT

THE LATEST UPDATE ON LOCAL BUSINESSES, RESTAURANT CLOSURES AND REAL ESTATE

Fare thee well, Humperdinks

Neighbors crowded into Humperdinks Restaurant and Brewpub to watch the Super Bowl for the last time in February. The Greenville Avenue hangout closed the following Monday after serving customers burgers and pizza for four decades. If you’re still craving the Cheeseburger Royale, the Arlington and Bachman-area locations remain open.

What will happen to Calloway’s?

Real estate developers plan to demolish Calloway’s Nursery and the vacant Jason’s Deli in favor of a mixed-use development. Vickery Meadow Real Estate Holdings seeks to construct a new office, retail, restaurant, hotel or multi-family housing at the 12.28-acre site on Greenville Avenue. Calloway’s hasn’t announced whether they’ll shutter or relocate. Dallas’ Zoning Review Team discussed the developer’s application in late January. The City Plan Commission will review the plans as early as March 7.

Redevelopment galore

The Hill Shopping Center has yet to replace its anchor TreeHouse, the eco-friendly home improvement store that shuttered in December 2018. Instead the mixed-use development at Walnut Hill Lane and Central Expressway has added a slew of restaurant, including Casa Verona and Empire Baking Company.

Shake Shack is replacing Fuddruckers at the Old Town Shopping Center. The new burger joint is expected to open in May or June.

The Store in Lake Highlands is moving to the revamped Lakeridge Shopping Center. The clothing and gift shop joins the likes of RM 12:20 Bistro, Taco Joint and Lake Highlands Nail Spa. Several tenants also have downsized, such as Atomic Pie, or were priced out, like Lake Highlands Creamery.
