The 20-story, 500,000-square-foot office tower adjacent to Klyde Warren Park will include an executive lounge, fitness facility, onsite restaurants and outdoor amenity spaces.

“Barnes & Thornburg is delighted to be a tenant at PwC Tower in Park District,” said Mark Bayer, Dallas office managing partner. “The building and location are the best in Dallas and we believe that it will help us to continue to compete for the best legal talent. Although Barnes & Thornburg has been in Dallas for less than three years, we hope that this move sends the clear message that we are here to stay.”
