The Joule Hotel is a four-star, 160-room hotel developed by Headington Hotels, owned by Timothy Headington . Located at 1530 Main Street, between Akard Street and Ervay Street, the building was constructed in 1927 as the Dallas National Bank Building , and was known later as the SPG Building . At the end of Stone Street Plaza, it is in the Main Street District of downtown Dallas , Texas , and with the Kirby Building , one of two Gothic high-rises in the city.
Its 10th floor pool cantilevers eight feet over the easement below, and was designed by ARCHITEXAS (Architecture, Planning and Historic Preservation, Inc). [2] [3] The interior was designed by Adam Tihany , and the lobby level is home to the Americano and CBD Provisions restaurants in addition to Weekend Coffee. [4] [5] [6] Cocktail bar Midnight Rambler occupies the basement and features decor based on the bar from Stanley Kubrick's The Shining and David Lynch's Silencio Club . [7]
From 2005 through 2007, evidence of a fire was discovered during ongoing renovations of the building next to the Joule. According to pictures available at the Dallas Public Library, in 1951, a significant fire occurred at the National Shirt Shop and Manuel's Cleaners, former businesses directly to the East of the Dallas National Bank building.
