Dallas Architecture Tour
120 min walk
Dallas Architecture Tour covers the most significant buildings designed by the world's greatest architects for a city that decided, sometime in the 1970s, to commission masterpieces. I.M. Pei designed three major Dallas buildings — Fountain Place, City Hall, and the Meyerson Symphony Center. Renzo Piano's Nasher Sculpture Center sits beside Norman Foster's Winspear Opera House. Rem Koolhaas built a theater where nothing is fixed. Thom Mayne erupted the Perot Museum from the ground. This tour connects the architectural landmarks that transformed Dallas from regional oil center to internationally recognized destination for cutting-edge design.
