A partnership between DART, the City of Dallas, and developer Palladium USA, the project is a $107 million, 300-plus unit mixed-income apartment community with numerous amenities (swimming pool, fitness center, dog park) and two parking garages with 350 spaces for residents.

Built on the site of a former DART parking lot, Buckner Station’s promenade will provide residents with direct access to DART transit services (light rail, bus, GoLink, paratransit) and access to Fair Park, Deep Ellum or Downtown Dallas in under 45 minutes. Construction began August 2025 and leasing is expected to begin before the end of 2026.    

 

The first phase of the project is complete with EVIVA Trinity Mills, a five-story, mixed-use development with a blend of residential and retail/restaurant spaces, completed in 2025. DART and the City of Carrollton partnered with developer Integral to turn the site of a former big box home improvement store and former DART Bus Transfer Center into an apartment community and public esplanade park.

The entire project is estimated to total $1 billion and will utilize 26 acres of Carrollton- and DART-owned land to include future office space, additional retail and residential spaces, and a planned hotel with direct access to DART Transit (Rail, Bus, GoLink and Paratransit) as well as a connection point into Denton County via DCTA A-Train.
