[
Dallas became an east/west
and north/south focal point of
the interstate system with the
convergence of four major interstate highways in the city,
along with a fifth interstate
loop around the city. Dallas developed a strong industrial and
financial sector, and a major
inland port, due largely to the
presence of Dallas/Fort Worth
International Airport, one of
the largest and busiest airports
in the world.

This brochure lists
the major buildings in Dallas
within each area of the city.
Dallas is the third-largest city
in the state of Texas and the
ninth-largest in the United
States. The Dallas-Fort Worth
metroplex is the largest metropolitan area in the South
and fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States.
Divided between Collin, Dallas, Denton, Kaufman, and
Rockwall counties, the city
had a population of 1,197,816
in 2010, according to the United States Census Bureau.
The city is the largest economic center of the
12-county Dallas–Fort Worth–
Arlington metropolitan area
(the DFW MSA) that according
to the March 2010 U.S. Census
Bureau release, had a population of 6,371,773. The metroplex economy is the sixth largest in the United States, with
a 2010 gross metropolitan
product of $374 billion.
Dallas was founded
in 1841 and was formally incorporated as a city in February 1856. The city’s economy
is primarily based on banking,
commerce, telecommunications, computer technology,
energy, healthcare and medical research, transportation
and logistics. The city is home
to the third largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies in the nation. Located in
North Texas and a major city
in the American South, Dallas is the main core of the
largest inland metropolitan
area in the United States that
lacks any navigable link to the
sea.
The city’s prominence arose from its historical
importance as a center for the
oil and cotton industries, and
its position along numerous
railroad lines. With the advent
of the interstate highway system in the 1950s and 1960s,
