• Some Highland Park Village Buildings To Get Renovations, Filing Shows (peoplenewspapers.com) — Major renovations are planned for key buildings at Highland Park Village, with an $11 million project set to start June 1 and run through mid‑2027. The work will update spaces housing brands like Oscar de la Renta, Balmain, and Loro Piana at Douglas and Mockingbird, though center representatives say they’re not yet ready to share specific design or tenant details. 
• Dallas wonders if Elon Musk's Boring Co. can help it dig out of traffic congestion (costar.com) — Dallas is exploring a free mile‑long Boring Co. tunnel to link the planned University Hills development with DART, but experts doubt it will ease regional congestion. For Highland Park residents, the bigger issue is that Highland Park and other suburbs have reportedly threatened to leave the DART network over service and safety concerns, which could reshape transit options across North Texas.
