Stream Realty Partners Helps LERMA/ Double Its Footprint In Dallas’ West End

DALLAS – December 6, 2022 – Dallas native creative agency expands from 27,959 square feet to 55,918 square feet in one year in one of Dallas’s newest and most innovative creative office spaces.

The Luminary is located at 401 N Houston Street in the West End, adjacent to the Central Business District. LERMA/ will occupy an additional full floor of the building. Stream Realty Partners Managing Director Dan Harris and Senior Associate Nate Hruby represented LERMA/ in the transaction. Senior Director of Project Management Services Bobby Kunkle provided construction management services. Stream, headquartered in Dallas, is a national real estate services, development, and investment company.

“Our expansion is an incredible testament to our team’s hard work, talent, and their commitment to our culture,” said Pedro Lerma, CEO of LERMA/. “I believe that a great office space improves productivity and company culture. We look forward to continuing to do great things in The Luminary for many more years and, hopefully, many more expansions.”

The Luminary offers an unmatched and innovative office experience with sweeping views of Downtown through electrochromatic glass windows that dynamically change tint in response to sunlight. Efficiently laid out floor plates and advanced building technology contribute to the collaborative atmosphere that LERMA/ strives towards.

“Dan and Nate were wonderful to work with, helping answer questions and solve problems as we navigated our exciting expansion,” said Melissa Sinkoski, COO of LERMA/. “We couldn’t be more proud of our team’s hard work that allows us to expand. The Luminary is a perfect place for our exciting growth; it meets all our needs.”

Recently purchased by Harwood International, The Luminary also offers a rooftop terrace, 52 bike racks and daily food service. The building is centrally located at the intersection of the Harwood District, Dallas Arts District, Design District, Downtown, Uptown, and Victory Park, offering tenants easy access to a host of retail and dining options. The West End is accessible by all major highways, thoroughfares, and public transit, including all four of DART’s light rail lines. Harwood International’s Kelly Whaley and Hannah Mesh represented the owner in the transaction.

“Pedro and his team have doubled their footprint at a time where many companies are downsizing or remaining the same,” said Harris. “Their growth over the past year is fascinating and a testament to the unique and collaborative office environment they’ve created.”

H-E-B Ventures Into the North Texas Market

The line started building at 6 p.m., about 12 hours before the doors of H-E-B’s first Metroplex store were slated to open. Jennifer Burnison knew she was going to have to stake out a spot early.

“As soon as they announced the release date, I was talking with my daughter and we said, ‘Alright, we’re going to be there,'” she shared. “We were trying to figure out how early was too early. Black Friday we’re used to 4 a.m., but we kind of had a feeling we had to get here even earlier for this.”

Burnison was right. By the time 5 a.m. rolled around, the line of eager customers was up to about 1,500 deep, a testament to the excitement surrounding the opening of the 118,000-square-foot Frisco store.

“I was in line with a lady who drove an hour just to get here from Sherman,” said shopper Kaleesa Johnson. Burnison got to be the first person through the doors, greeted with a gift basket, confetti and a marching band. The customers who followed behind her also got free samples and giveaways.

“We are so happy H-E-B is finally here,” said Millie Stussy. “There are so many things on my shopping list!”

The San Antonio-based company operates a handful of its Central Market stores in North Texas, but Frisco is its first H-E-B location.

“Opening our flagship H-E-B format in the DFW area has been an aspirational goal of ours for many years, and the company has a long-term commitment to serve a broad range of customers and communities across North Texas,” Stephen Butt, H-E-B board member, said in a statement.
