Headington Companies is a Dallas-based firm with a diversified portfolio spanning private equity, film production, office development, hospitality, restaurant, and retail. Its early foray into Dallas's Main Street district centered on hospitality with The Joule Hotel, a restoration of a 1920s Neo-Gothic bank building. Today the company owns upwards of 20 independent real estate acquisitions in the district and operates a range of amenities associated with The Joule, including a spa, fitness concepts, and onsite retail and dining outlets. Acquisitions such as Forty Five Ten in 2014 and Tenoversix in 2018 illustrate Headington's strategy of building retail, restaurant, and cultural experiences in local and expansion markets. Forty Five Ten was planned to open a 16,000-square-foot storefront at Hudson Yards in New York City, signaling the firm's broader geographic ambitions. Based in Dallas, Headington continues to activate urban districts through mixed-use developments and curated venues that connect hospitality with retail and culture.
