Offerings include hot lunch entrees, an up-scale salad and pasta bar, fresh fruits, frozen yogurt, whole rotisserie take-home chickens, and bottles of wine and gourmet chocolates. The Marketplace also carries a collection of sundry items so customers have one-stop shopping in the building where they office. “We are thrilled to offer our customers The Marketplace. We have worked with Fresh Choice before when they opened a Fresh Choice Express more than ten years ago in Crescent’s headquarters’ building in Fort Worth, Carter Burgess Plaza. They are well-respected operators and will provide a great amenity to Trammell Crow Center,” said Crescent’s Managing Director of Leasing, John Zogg.

Trammell Crow Center, located in the Arts District of Dallas, totals 1.2 million square feet on 50 floors, with a polished and flamed granite exterior and garden plaza, bordered by the Crow Collection of Asian Art.
