University Park United Methodist Church Renovations

University Park United Methodist Church Renovations at 4024 Caruth Boulevard in Dallas is a completed construction project that passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in June 2026. The work involved a significant internal update to a large existing structure, specifically targeting finishes in gathering spaces and corridors. The project covered approximately 20,000 square feet within a 103,000-square-foot building, representing a substantial portion of the facility's interior footprint.

The scope of work included the replacement of doors, windows, and some interior walls, along with the creation of new small rooms within existing spaces. This renovation was privately funded on private land for private use. The estimated cost for the project was $2,300,000, which calculates to $115 per square foot. This cost per square foot is above the county median of $72 for similar renovation and alteration filings in Dallas County.

GFF Design served as the design firm of record for the project. Kimberly J Goss was the registered accessibility specialist. The project was registered with TDLR in February 2025, and plan review was completed in the same month. Construction was scheduled to begin in March 2025, with a planned completion date of August 2025. The final inspection was passed in June 2026, confirming the completion of the construction phase.
