I see your photo of Dallas shows that malformed tall arch with cables holding up a car bridge over a — crick.  I think Dallas has been trying to think up a symbol that would separate their skyline from all the other lookalike square tower chiclet skylines. Like what St Louis, Seattle, SF, NY, & Chicago have.

They have had that geodesic ball on a stick for several years now.  Looks kind of dated now, and Knoxville and Vancouver have those too.  I think their arch bridge was a new attempt.

The bridges go over the flood plain of Trinity River - they span from levee to levee.  We used to drink "down at the trinity" a few miles upstream from there when I was in high school.

DART approves service cuts to save $42 million over the next 2 years.

The cuts include the elimination of 7 bus lines, reduced peak-hour frequency on trains and buses, and reduced on-demand service.

The cuts are in part because of new costs to run the Silver Line commuter train.

AT&T is looking for 1 million sf of office space outside of downtown Dallas, primarily in the suburbs.

As of 2022, they had 2 million sf of office space and 6,000 workers downtown.

Just imagine if we had 6K AT&T workers in Downtown STL.

The main competitors to AT&T are located in similar corporate campuses with lots of green space (Verizon in Basking Ridge and T-Mobile HQ’s in Bellevue and Overland Park).




I wonder if this influenced AT&T’s thinking in any way.
