As a casual collector of vintage photos and local ephemera, I am frequently on the lookout for unique and historical items. A few months ago, I came across a listing for an old Ektachrome slide dating to the 1950s, one which depicted a seven story parking garage somewhere in Dallas. Other than the city and the decade, no further information was available. Where exactly was this garage, and is it still standing today? It was an intriguing mystery, and one worth solving for someone with an affinity for local history. If the photo was indeed taken in Dallas, the slide would make a great candidate for my vintage photo collection, and I thus set about attempting to identify the building and its (perhaps former) location.
