Save Dallas City Hall

🌵 In our next conversation outside Dallas City Hall, Lorenzo and Stephanie Drenka reflect on the legacy of I.M. Pei, one of the most recognized Chinese American in the world.

From Dallas City Hall to the Fountain Place, Pei’s work helped shape the city and stands as a lasting mark of Asian American contribution to North Texas. With so few visible remnants of early Chinese immigrant history in the region, losing City Hall would mean losing a vital piece of that story.
