Victory Park, in downtown Dallas, is an innovative 75 acre mixed use development, encompassing seven million square feet of high-density retail, residential, entertainment and office space, adjacent to the American Airlines Center, which is the home arena for the Dallas Mavericks and the National Hockey Leagueâ??s Dallas Stars. The W Dallas Victory Hotel and Residences, opened in June 2006, is the first W in Texas and the first W to feature residences.
â??Victory Park is becoming the most vibrant and innovative mixed use urban district in the country, so we wanted truly state of the art wireless broadband technology that was both field-proven and cost effective; thatâ??s why we chose BelAir Networks and Red One to implement itâ??, said Dave Newgard, CTO Victory Park, Perot Systems. â??BelAir Networks wireless mesh technology delivers carrier-class capacity and reliability so guests, tenants, residents and visitors enjoy industry-leading broadband performance and we get the scalability we need to address this growing community.â??
