This year I celebrated my ten year anniversary as the architecture critic of the Dallas Morning News, and in April I looked back at that time and the phenomenon I call Dallas Logic. As for 2023, Dallas was its usual self, offering no shortage of compelling narratives. I tracked the selection of an architect for the expansion of the Dallas Museum of Art; followed a long forgotten creek under downtown; I looked at why the city has consistently failed to preserve Frank Lloyd Wright’s Kalita Humphreys Theater; examined the shifting plan for an extravagant Trinity Park; continued my series on the city’s defining buildings; looked at how AI performs architecture criticism; profiled the city’s most prolific architect; covered projects using Quonset huts and Flinstones curves; and wrote about the most beautiful (and meaningful) new building in Texas. Can’t wait until next year.
