## Resource

Dallas is at a crossroads as major downtown institutions like the Mavericks and Stars prepare to relocate, Neiman Marcus shuts its doors, and AT&T moves to Plano—sparking fears of a downtown exodus. A billion-dollar City Hall renovation proposal has ignited debate: is it worth the cost, or should the city redirect funds toward revitalizing the urban core? Advocates urge the Mavericks to reconsider, while others push to preserve City Hall, warning against treating cultural assets as disposable. Residents are divided—some see a slow fade from complacency, others a chance to reinvent the city’s heart. With a key city council meeting looming, Dallas is poised to decide its future.
