Fair Park Tram Tour
2024-03-20 12:00 - 14:00 | Fair Park, 3600 Parry Avenue, Dallas, TX, 75210
Fair Park, a celebration of art, architecture, and industry, is a cultural and historic gem in the heart of Dallas. Join us for a motorized tour of the park while we fill you in on its amazing past and talk about its exciting future.
Architecturally, Fair Park is one of the world’s largest collections of Art Deco buildings with a unique design approach that Chief Architect George Dahl described as “Texanic.” Integral to the buildings and the grounds are numerous works by renowned artists that celebrate the history and achievements of Texas during the first 100 years of independence. First established for the Dallas State Fair in 1886, Fair Park was transformed in 1936 for the Texas Centennial Exposition. It is one of Dallas’ greatest cultural assets, hosting events year-round and exhibitions and serving as home to numerous cultural institutions. In 1986, it was recognized as a National Historic Landmark.
In partnership with Fair Park First, the Dallas Architecture and Design Exchange presents hour-long lunchtime tram tours on the third Wednesday of the month at several times throughout the year. Tickets are $10 for general admission, and $5 for students and seniors.
The tour begins at noon at the Parry Street entrance gate adjacent to the DART stop. Seats are limited – reserve your seat in advance.
NOTE: The duration of the tour ranges from 1.5 to 2 hours. There is some walking (1/4 of a mile or less) to allow participants to get up close to some of the artwork. Please note any mobility challenges at the time of registration so that the tour route can be adjusted to accommodate all guests.

Coffee & Conversation: Dallas Parking Reform
2024-04-09 08:30 - 10:00 | Architecture and Design Exchange, 325 N. St. Paul Street, Suite 150, Dallas, TX, 75201, United States
Presented by HOK-Dallas, Organized by the Public Policy Committee
AIA Dallas is proud to host a conversation about parking reform in Dallas on Tuesday, April 9 at 8:30am. Our panel includes fellow architects and members of the Zoning Ordinance Advisory Committee — Tip Housewright, FAIA and Ryan Behring – and city planners Sarah May and Michael Wade.
We will learn more about the city’s current proposal to remove mandatory parking in the development code and to add additional requirements for design and Transportation Demand Management Plans.
In December 2021, AIA Dallas hosted esteemed parking reform expert Dr. Donald Shoup for a discussion about parking requirements in Dallas. This is an exciting conversation and next step in the policy process to reform parking mandates across Dallas. Join us to learn more.
This is a hybrid event. No registration is required to attend in-person at AD EX, or register to attend virtually via Zoom to receive the meeting link.
