DALLAS, March 23, 2026 – JLL today announced it has been selected to market and lease Pinnacle Tower, which was sold by New York Life to Estein USA and Vanderbilt Office Properties (Vanderbilt) earlier this month. The 549,170-square-foot office property is 88% leased and located in the heart of the Lower Tollway.
JLL Senior Managing Director Blake Shipley, Managing Director Gini Rounsaville and Senior Vice President Ashley Curry will handle office leasing at Pinnacle Tower on behalf of Estein USA and Vanderbilt.
“The Lower Tollway has quickly become Dallas’ city center, and Pinnacle Tower has emerged as a leader,” said JLL’s Shipley. “We’re thrilled to be working with Estein USA and Vanderbilt who are committed to the tenant experience and the continued elevation of this Trophy building.”
Situated at the northwest corner of Lyndon B. Johnson Freeway and Dallas North Tollway, Pinnacle Tower is a landmark of the Dallas office sector within one of the market’s most active corridors. Standing 24 stories tall, the property features an onsite café, expansive tenant lounge, conference center, coffee bar, outdoor amenity area, fitness center and shuttle service.
“Pinnacle Tower’s strategic location at the epicenter of Dallas’ incredible growth story is what sets it apart from other offerings,” said Lance Fair, COO and CIO at Estein USA. “Its sustained ability to attract and retain corporate users is a testament to a level of excellence that withstands the test of time.”
Casey Wold, CEO and Managing Partner at Vanderbilt, added, “As new ownership, we have an opportunity to rediscover a well-known trophy asset that is Pinnacle Tower. We look forward to building on the leasing success the property has already experienced with the help of the exceptional team at JLL, while maintaining the highest level of quality for our tenants.”
According to JLL’s Q4 2025 Dallas Office Market Dynamics report, the market finished out the year with positive momentum that has carried into the start of 2026. The growth of Y’all Street continues to position Dallas as a major financial services hub and the metroplex is experiencing a period of rapid population growth, both contributing to an uptick of users searching for office space. With many return-to-office mandates in full effect and a tapering construction pipeline, well-located and amenitized properties like Pinnacle Tower are well-positioned to absorb heightened demand.
