Some Dallas photos I dug up that I never got around to posting. Unfortunately it was a cloudy day, but I tried to make the best of it.

Good thread. I don't know what it is about this building in the background....but I remember when I was about 8 years old I saw it in person and I think I drooled on myself.

(Back then it was 1st Interstate Tower....not sure what it is now) I fuk'n love I.M. Pei.... although the colors are very different, he uses similar shapes in the Bank of China Tower in H.K.

Big D, you say? Nuff said. Cool shots, especially the Bank One Center, err, Chase Center base pics.

I think buildings should be required to offer a recipe if they plan on having their names changed. It's just too friggin' hard to keep up with the name changes. Darn banks.

It's called Fountain Place.

Great pics, Jeeper.
Thanks for posting them.
