HomeBase’s quick answer
Start your search in Dallas Arts District for access to Goldman Sachs’s Dallas worksite at 2001 Ross Avenue, Suite 2800. Compare Southern Uptown and Victory Park for a different daily routine before choosing a lease.
Where is the Goldman Sachs worksite?
2001 Ross Avenue, Suite 2800, Dallas, TX 75201 · Dallas Arts District. Office location source
Goldman Sachs also lists 717 North Harwood Street, Suite 1300, and a separate Richardson location. Ask where your team will sit during your lease term. For Richardson, compare CityLine and nearby North Dallas instead of assuming an Arts District commute.
Which neighborhoods should you compare?
| Neighborhood | Why tour it | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Dallas Arts District | Downtown office access near museums and parks | Compare the last few blocks after dark and on event nights. |
| Southern Uptown | A walkable social routine, dining and apartment towers | Walk the exact route to work and price garage parking. |
| Victory Park | High-rise living with sports and events nearby | Test arena-night traffic and garage access. |
If you’re moving from outside the area, compare the two neighborhoods you would be happiest spending an ordinary week in. Drive or walk the routes at the same time of day to make the comparison fair.
What should you check about the commute?
Use the employee entrance or the address in your onboarding materials. Confirm office days, parking and any separate client sites before you assume that the closest building is the best fit. If you’ll drive to the office or clients, include parking and tolls. Check Love Field and DFW trips only if air travel is a regular part of your week.
How do you compare the full apartment cost?
Request a written quote for the actual unit, lease term and move-in date. Add parking, utilities, recurring fees, pet costs and one-time move-in charges. If you receive a concession, ask when it applies and how much you will owe in a regular month. Compare the total against the cost of the commute.
What should you do on your first tour?
- Start near work. Tour two options in Dallas Arts District and test the door-to-door route.
- Compare a different routine. Walk the main blocks in Southern Uptown, then stop in Victory Park if the first two areas leave a gap in your shortlist.
- See the actual unit. Check light, noise, desk space, garage access and delivery instructions. For a remote search, ask for a live video walkthrough.
- Confirm the move. Verify the unit, written price, move-in date and required documents before applying.

Questions to help you decide
Related published questions selected by topic. These are separate answers, not newly verified property quotes.
Should a West Plano employee still tour Uptown or Victory Park?
When the renter’s budget, schedule, and commute tolerance make it realistic, Grant likes adding at least one strong Uptown or Victory Park comparison. Some recent graduates arrive convinced that central Dallas is where they want to live, while others underestimate how social and polished West Plano can be. Seeing both helps the renter make the decision from firsthand experience. For a five-day West Plano office schedule, the northern option often wins on practicality. For a hybrid employee, central Dallas can become much more competitive. The point is not to force either choice; it is to compare the lifestyle and commute honestly.
Should a new Dallas hire compare Knox, Uptown, and Victory Park instead of only two neighborhoods?
Yes. Grant prefers comparing all three when the budget and commute make them realistic. Knox offers the strongest complete walkable neighborhood experience in his current assessment, with restaurants, boutiques, groceries, Katy Trail access, and a slightly calmer feel. West Village/Uptown offers concentrated activity, restaurants, bars, shops, and trolley access. Victory Park adds newer high-rises, central convenience, sports and entertainment, and a strong social setting. Different renters can legitimately prefer different winners, so HomeBase would rather show representative options in all three than force a false two-neighborhood choice.
What should HomeBase ask before choosing Knox, Uptown, or Victory Park?
HomeBase should ask for the exact office, number of in-office days, comfortable all-in housing budget, high-rise preference, car ownership, importance of walkability, need for groceries and errands on foot, interest in Katy Trail, preference for nightlife versus a calmer neighborhood, and which actual apartment offers the strongest unit, management, concession, and location. Those answers often reveal the winner. Knox is strongest for a complete walkable neighborhood experience, West Village for concentrated activity and trolley access, and Victory Park for newer high-rise living and central entertainment.
