5 Unique Facts You May Not Know About The Joule

The Pool

Perhaps the most iconic feature of The Joule, our unique 8-foot cantilevered pool gives guests the sensation of swimming out beyond the hotel’s edge. Equally voyeuristic for those swimming or those standing on the street below, it gives “hanging out by the pool” a whole new meaning.

Weekend Coffee

Guests and locals buzz to this caffeinated gem. Start early with artisanal espresso and house-made breakfast pastries, stop in for cold brew and matcha in the afternoon, and wind down your evening with one of the city’s best chai tea lattes. Going out later? Ask for it dirty!

 

The Eye At The Joule

Tony Tasset’s larger-than-life optic sculpture, Eye, has become one of the most iconic (and rumor-generating) fixtures on Main Street.

The 30-foot-tall fiberglass, resin, and steel sculpture is a replica of the American multimedia artist’s own eye. Referencing everything from a pharaoh’s eye, a Masonic eye, and the eye of “Big Brother,” the piece ultimately means “whatever you want,” says Tasset. “Eye is one of those images that has taken on a number of meanings over the years. God and consciousness are just two of them.”

Originally commissioned as part of the Chicago Loop Alliance’s Art Loop program, Eye made its debut in the Windy City’s Pritzker Park in 2010 before arriving in its new Dallas home three years later. Since then, it has become the city’s most unique private event space and the site of the annual Dallas Art Fair’s closing soiree The Eye Ball, along with countless weddings, parties, yoga classes, and selfies.
