We’ve told you all about it, and hope to see you there. Some of Dallas’ most significant residences are primed and ready as we get ready to honor the legacy of our beloved Ebby Halliday. And I have word that some high profile lovers of art & architecture will be at one mid century home… perhaps mulling a move?
