Judge Charles R. Rose Community Park: A New Oasis for Southern Dallas.
DALLAS – June 12, 2025 – PRAXIS successfully managed the groundbreaking ceremony for Tenison Lofts, a significant mixed-income housing development spearheaded by Generation Housing Partners. The event took place across from Samuell Grand Park and spans two Dallas City Council districts, marking a pivotal moment in the revitalization of the area.
The Tenison Lofts project will introduce 164 units of Class A housing, aimed at providing affordable living options for families and individuals in the community. This development replaces long-blighted commercial properties, transforming the landscape and enhancing the quality of life for residents.

Despite inclement weather and a limited budget, PRAXIS executed a seamless event that highlighted the importance of this milestone. Attendees included local officials, community leaders, and residents, all gathered to celebrate the beginning of a project that promises to foster community engagement and economic growth.
"We are thrilled to be part of this transformative project. Tenison Lofts represents not just new housing, but a commitment to building inclusive communities where everyone can thrive," says Asheya Warren, CEO and Founder of Praxis.
The groundbreaking ceremony featured speeches from key stakeholders, including representatives from Generation Housing Partners and the City of Dallas. They emphasized the project's role in addressing the urgent need for affordable housing in the area, as well as its potential to stimulate local economic development.
Community Impact
The Tenison Lofts development is expected to create numerous job opportunities during construction and once completed, contributing to the local economy. Additionally, the project will include community-focused amenities, such as green spaces and recreational areas, designed to promote a sense of community and well-being among residents.
Looking Ahead
As the construction of Tenison Lofts progresses, PRAXIS remains committed to supporting initiatives that enhance community engagement and provide quality housing options. The project is a testament to the power of collaboration between public and private sectors in addressing housing challenges in Dallas.
