The list § 01
Railroad warehouses, bank towers, a 1929 hotel, a 1928 catalog colossus — the buildings that lived a first life before condominiums. Character is the draw; the reserve study is the homework, which is why every one of these files links the converted-buildings due-diligence guide.

What the roll shows § 03
Across the 7 buildings here with certified county files — 583 unit accounts — median assessed values run $228,000 (Lake Cliff Tower) to $4,524,200 (The Terminal at Katy Trail). Owner mailing at the property spans 16–80%. The group recorded 46 deed transfers in the trailing twelve months.
Against the full registry — 67 county-filed buildings, median assessed $551,150, median unit 1,646 sf, median owner-mail share 77% — this group sits below on value with a smaller typical unit at 1,482 sf.
The Tower is the one Tarrant County building in this group with a full county read, and it's kept out of the Dallas totals above because the two appraisal districts publish on different files. Its 288 homes sit in two condominium regimes recorded in 2005 inside a structure TAD dates to 1972, and at 288 accounts it is the largest building on this list. The 2026 TAD file puts its median at $352,235 on a 1,045 sf median home; 35 accounts carry a deed dated within the twelve months to Oct 3, 2026. No floor count is given because the published figures disagree. Source: Tarrant Appraisal District 2026 residential file (file dated Oct 3, 2026); declarations D205078021 and D205120223 per the recorded management certificates on hoa.texas.gov, opened Oct 14, 2026.
County files are pending for Forest Park Tower, Neil P at Burnett Park, Houston Place Lofts, Texas & Pacific Lofts, One Montgomery Plaza Residences, Dickson Jenkins Lofts; those rows carry registry data only until the next roll pass.
