Downtown Dallas: Romantic Past, Modern Renaissance

From dusty prairie village to one of the nation's ten largest cities, Dallas has been defined by bold personalities and big buildings. They are all here in this book-the bankers, oil men, cotton brokers, merchants, and insurance titans who created the future and built the monumental structures that reflected their success. Today, gleaming new office towers nestle comfortably with century-old residential conversations. The architectural diversity and rich past of the city are brought to life in this lavishly illustrated volume by a native Dallasite.
