Abstract


The Reunion Tower, 50 stories and 170 m high, along with the adjacent 1,000 room hotel, constitutes the first phase of an urbanistic rehabilitation complex for a plot of 20 hectares, located in the South-West sector of the city's shopping centre. Due to its singular characteristics, the Tower has in fact already become a clear identifying mark in the city of Dallas. Right at the top, it ends in a geodesic dome, in three levels, that amount to over 2,300 m2 of the total area, and where there is a restaurant on rotating platform, a cocktail room of the same characteristics, an observation terrace and a radio station. The project has been given the award of the Reinforced Cement Institute, and that of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) corresponding to Los Angeles.
