Description:
|
DOWNTOWN. This incredible Romanesque Revival building, after many years of neglect, has been restored to its original glory, and its architectural impact and details are once again exquisite. Built in the early 1890s and located near the cabin home of city founder John Neely Bryan, the courthouse stands as one of Dallas's oldest structures. The multi-leveled structure showcases turrets, ornate gargoyles, and an exterior of Pecos red sandstone and Arkansas gray granite. Its impressive clock tower and dramatic central staircase have been rebuilt to restore the architect's design and intentions, and a museum about Dallas history, along with exhibition galleries, are helping to make the building an integral part of the city again. |
