Dallas Centre

A few nice Dallas images I found:

Dallas Centre

This model shows the proposal for Dallas Centre in 1976. One Dallas Centre was the only project built and it is in the lower center section of this picture. Two and Three towers were never built. I.M. Pei designed the complex, still popular in town from his Dallas City Hall design.

The site for the second tower (upper center) is now a parking lot, and the third tower site (on the left) is the parking garage for the Sheraton.

Republic Bank is located on the right in the model. This image is from a brochure about the project.

Part of the James F. Moshinskie Historic Funeral Service Collection, Thanks to James Fine of Hillsboro, Texas - The original picture is quite wide, so it was scanned in two sections and then combined as best a possible in this historic reproduction. Please send us a comment if you can identify any members of this class.

Dallas skyline

One of many viewpoints of the Dallas skyline.

I've been asked exactly where I shot this photo. I can't remember exactly where, since it's been a LONG time since I've been in Dallas, but I THINK it might have been from along N. Beckley Avenue, between W. Commerce Street and I-30 (a.k.a. "Tom Landry Freeway"), OR on that perimeter road that is just on the east side of Beckley Avenue, west of the Trinity River, south of Trinity Overlook Park and north of I-30.

After using Google Earth, I think it may have indeed been the aforementioned location.
