Summary, model-written
One Main Place (1201 Main St, Dallas) was originally a 1968 office building (33 floors, 445 ft tall) developed by Dallas, Texas, Corporation. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2015. The building was retrofitted under the 'reinhabit' strategy: the top 10 floors converted to hotel rooms (including a 32nd-floor pool), leaving 10 floors for offices. The retrofit is complete (status: built).
Why. The retrofit is already built (opportunity reason: 'retrofit already built'). Current median rent is $1,469 per sq ft (opportunity reason: 'median rent $1,469').
Where it stands. Located in Dallas, within 0.7 km of Sanger Harris downtown flagship (a built peer). No other nearby peers within 10 km. Housing market shows slight annual ZHVI decline (-1.6%) but rising ZORI (1.4% annual growth).

Background
One Main Place is a mixed-use skyscraper hotel and office building at 1201 Main Street in Dallas, Texas. The building rises 445 ft (136 m). Designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, it contains 33 above-ground floors, and was completed in 1968. One Main Place is the 27th-tallest building in the city. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2015. Originally conceived in the 1950s by the Dallas, Texas, Corporation to become Dallas's first Superblock, the building's 30,000-sq-ft footprint occupies only a third of the 2.4-acre property, almost a full city block.
