So I was perusing the day's news and came upon this - an item about developers who are slowly beginning to embrace the 50s architecture that abounds in downtown Dallas. Several of the long-vacant office towers are finding new life as condos or apartments, with plans for other buildings in the works.
Personally, I immensely prefer the earlier styles of architecture from the first few decades of the 20th century, but I am willing to accept these aluminum-and-steel behemoths for what they are - a product of their time. Plus, it's just nice to see these structures put to some sort of use, instead of just rotting away in the central business district as they have for years. Now, if the designers can just incorporate the tenets of 1950s design into the interiors of these adaptive-reuse projects...
