    Location:
    The Joule Dallas, TX

    Built in the 1920s, the neo-Gothic landmark building at 1530 Main Street was originally the Dallas National Bank. It dominated the downtown skyline during a thriving era of Dallas banking and West Texas oil booms.

    Downtown Dallas flourished through the '80s, but as the 20th century drew to a close, it was a shadow of its former glory.

    A decade of development deals and massive renovations transformed the then-vacant bank building into a Forbes four-star boutique hotel.

    Aptly named after the international unit of energy, The Joule brought a charge to downtown Dallas when it opened in 2008.

    Through a series of further renovations and expansions as adjacent properties became available, The Joule has become a cultural, shopping, and dining destination—a forerunner in the renaissance of downtown Dallas.
