Dallas Built City Hall After a Dark Chapter — Don't Erase That History

"[W]e stepped out onto the plaza and the whole vision unfolded: a public gathering space for “we the people.”

"I stood at the foundation of City Hall, the concrete building blocks that reached overhead and out to the citizens, creating a covered front porch with windows that reflected the citizenry."

Here's what Dallas residents have to say about their City Hall

Ahead of a Dallas City Council vote on the direction of City Hall, residents are speaking up about their opinions over the future of the building.

"The rush to make a decision includes lots of opportunity for oversights, miscalculations. I've seen nothing that says what the truly allocated cost of relocating a city hall to another building would be."

People Who Don’t Understand Downtowns Are Destroying Downtowns 🏙️

A far-fetched plan to demolish Dallas’s seat of government is threatening the city’s role in the region.

Dallas City Hall might ultimately be razed for a casino—a perfect symbol for our era of civic impoverishment and gambling addiction.

Downtown Dallas To Get a Hi-Fi Listening Lounge Called Shyboy "The Sound That Makes You Feel"

Based on Japanese 'kissas,' the lounge beneath the Drakestone Apartments is designed for audiophiles.

“People want little record shops,. They want curation, and they want super niche [selections]. That’s, I think, what people really dig.”
