Recommended: If you represent property owners in the blocks immediately surrounding the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, obtain the recorded deed and appraisal from this settlement to establish a per-square-foot benchmark — any future acquisition or inverse condemnation claim in the same corridor will be measured against this city-accepted figure.
Obtain recorded deed to map Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center expansion boundary
Context: City Council approved the $11.3M settlement on February 25, 2026, as part of the $695.7M guaranteed maximum price convention center expansion — the acquired parcel defines the outer edge of the city's footprint and signals which neighboring lots may be next in line.
Recommended: Request the recorded deed and survey for the $11.3M condemnation parcel from Dallas County to identify exactly which blocks are now city-controlled and which adjacent sites remain in private hands for potential assembly.
