If you’re researching Dallas apartments and want something close to downtown that won’t break the bank, The Margaret at Riverfront in Trinity Groves deserves a spot on your list. Just a few minutes from the Dallas skyline, The Margaret offers a blend of affordability, location, and amenities that make it stand out in the current Dallas rental market. In this post, we’ll walk through the layout, amenities, parking, floor plans, and some practical tips for getting the most value—plus a quick look at incentives and what to expect if you’re considering a move.

Property Layout & Location

The Margaret at Riverfront is located in Trinity Groves, a vibrant neighborhood just a three-minute drive from downtown Dallas. The property is designed as a compound with four separate buildings, being constructed in phases. When fully complete, The Margaret will have 929 units, including studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans. Buildings one and two are finished and have already welcomed residents, while buildings three and four are expected to be completed later this year. If you’re interested in the newest units or specific layouts, be sure to check current availability as construction progresses.

Amenities Overview

The Margaret offers a range of amenities that are typically found in higher-end Dallas apartments. Here’s what you’ll find:

• Sky Deck Pool & Lounge: Located on building one’s rooftop, offering skyline views and a relaxing spot to unwind.
• Fitness Center: A standout gym with cardio equipment, dumbbells up to 70 lbs, and even a loose barbell—unusual for this price point in Dallas apartments.
• Co-working Spaces: Building two features private offices and a conference room, with additional lounge workspace by the pool. Notably, the property has partnered with WeWork, making it unique in the Dallas market. The co-working space closes at 6:00 p.m., so plan accordingly if you work late hours.
• Dog Park: A large, fenced-in dog park with a gravel path, basic amenities, and plenty of space for your furry friends.
• Parking: Each building has its own six-level parking garage with EV chargers and automatic gates. Guest parking is available on the first level (about 20 spots per building), along with street parking. Buildings three and four will share a separate garage when completed.
• Bonus Amenities: Complimentary coffee and a small convenience store tucked behind the leasing office—a feature more commonly found in high-rise buildings.

Floor Plans & Interior Features

The Margaret offers a mix of studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments. Studios are among the most affordable in newer Dallas buildings, with some previously renting for $800–$900 per month after incentives for approximately 380 square feet. Availability can change quickly, so be sure to verify current pricing and openings if you’re interested.

One-bedroom units (like the A2 floor plan) feature hardwood flooring throughout the kitchen, living room, bedroom, study, bathroom, and closet on the first floor—an uncommon touch in this segment. Upper floors switch to carpet in the bedrooms. Color schemes vary by building, so prospective residents should check which style fits their preference.

Two-bedroom options (like the B21 floor plan) are spacious, with windows that open for fresh air. Some units do not have balconies, so double-check if that’s important to you. All apartments come with in-unit washers and dryers. Most refrigerators offer ice makers, but water dispensers are less common, so consider a water filter or keep bottled water handy.

Tips for Maximizing Incentives

Many Dallas apartment buildings, including The Margaret, run public promotions or move-in incentives. As a local Dallas realtor, I have relationships with these buildings and can often help secure deeper incentives, depending on your timing, floor plan, and budget. If you’re considering a move, it’s worth reaching out to see what’s currently available. Remember, incentives and pricing can change, so always verify the latest details before signing a lease.
