What a wonderful place and wonderful hosts! I used Blackbird Lofts for a two-day VIP corporate meeting/workshop involving an international, highly-recognizable brand. The purpose of our workshop/summit was to get out of an office dynamic, and into a highly-creative and thinking-conducive environment. Blackbird Lofts worked to the "T."
Our agency rented out both side-by-side units, allowing for us to bring a number of cars into their gated, on premise lot. The loft environment was eclectic, open, and free -- a perfect evolution of a former warehouse near the prized Dallas Farmers' Market. Super diverse set of spaces to have breakout sessions in, including the beautiful wide-open roof; complete with spectacular views of Dallas (pictures don't do it justice).
We had meals from some of the best locals: Cane Rosso pizza, Pecan Lodge BBQ, Palmieri's Cafe, Laili Afgan food, and Cafe Momentum. All came on high recommendation from our hosts, and I highly pass them on to you -- all needs right within walking distance.
Speaking of hosts -- Lisa and Howard were beyond words. It's difficult to speak to just how much they volunteered to help organize drop-off of materials, product, any any random needs. They are true professionals at understanding the needs associated with event coordination and our event wouldn't have been as smooth had they not been there for us. Made my job as a producer so much easier -- day and night, they were there at a moment's notice.
Highly, HIGHLY recommend reaching out to Lisa to discuss your next retreat or corporate meeting -- she'll be there for you every step of the way. Can't wait to come back!
