UNITi Bishop Arts sits at 596 West 9th Street in Oak Cliff, Dallas — about a ten-minute walk from the core of the Bishop Arts District. The building offers studios, two-bedroom, three-bedroom, and four-bedroom floor plans. Studios work well for solo residents; the three- and four-bedroom units are leased by the bed and come with furnished options, so each resident signs their own lease and gets a private bathroom.
Floor Plans and What Each Layout Covers
Studio floor plans range from 302 to 445 square feet and come in several configurations: Studio A, B, C, D, E, F, H, I, and J. The most widely available are Studio A (37 units, 302 sq ft) and Studio C (25 units, 302 sq ft). Studio J is the largest at 445 square feet across 3 units, and Studio I runs 385 square feet across 4. For solo residents who want a private, self-contained space with no roommates and everything included, any of the studio plans deliver that.
The 2 Bed / 2 Bath plan is 650 square feet across 4 units — a standard two-bedroom layout where both residents share the lease.
The 3 Bed / 3 Bath units run 1,028 to 1,125 square feet across 27 units, and the 4 Bed / 4 Bath units run 1,263 to 1,416 square feet across 36 units. Both are leased by the bed, meaning each resident pays their own share independently. Every bedroom in these units has its own private bathroom. Furnished options are available.
