Dodson Commercial Real Estate, a 39-year-old commercial real estate development firm based in Arlington has completed its rebranding to "Street Realty" and will soon relocate its headquarters to Fort Worth.
The company said both moves were its planned brand evolution in line with the vision of its new executive team led by Ryan Dodson and Alex Bryant.
The company’s new offices will be located in a newly acquired building at 3909 Hulen Street, according to company officials.
“Our new name, ‘Street Realty,’ reflects our collective passion for urban projects and is a fun play on the fact that all buildings are located on some sort of street,” said Dodson. “We also like to think of ourselves as having forward-thinking street smarts.”
Jerry Dodson, Dodson’s father, founded the firm in 1984.
The company began as an Arlington-based property manager and developer. When Ryan Dodson joined the firm in 2002, it expanded services and established a decades-long track record of successful residential and commercial projects, including notable redevelopment projects in downtown Arlington such as 404 Border, Block 300, and Urban Union. In the more recent years, the company has become active throughout Fort Worth, including projects in South Main Village, Magnolia Village, The Foundry District, and Clearfork.
Dodson’s projects include notable customers such as The Bearded Lady, Nickel City, Salsa Limon, Fort Worth ENT, Fort Worth Locals, Panther City Salon, and more.
Bryant joined the company in 2020 and brought with him years of commercial brokerage experience, where, under the Dodson CRE umbrella, he successfully launched a third-party services team. Bryant’s development experience includes the 2022 completion of the notable Texas Wesleyan student housing project, “The Rosedale,” which garnered community-wide praise and filled a much-needed demand for modern on-campus student housing at the University.
After joining forces in 2020, Dodson and Bryant ramped up their focus on urban projects with the development of “The 701,” a 68,000-square-foot mixed-use project in Magnolia Village, which is home to VLK Architects, Shinjuku Station, and will soon be joined by acclaimed Fort Worth chef Marcus Paisley’s newest restaurant, Walloon’s.
The rebranding effort was driven by the company’s growth, wide variety of projects, and continued expansion of services, Dodson and Bryant said.
“Street Realty will carry on Dodson CRE’s mission of providing superior real estate services that exceed client expectations,” said Bryant. “We are so excited to announce our new brand and our move to Fort Worth as it marks a significant milestone for our company’s growth trajectory. We look forward to seeing what opportunities lie ahead for Street Realty as we set out on this new journey.”
