Jeremy Strick, the director of the Nasher Sculpture Center, sent an email to the Nasher’s members, friends and supporters today asking them (and everyone who loves Dallas) to contact our council reps and get this issue resolved and yes, do the German louvre thing: Dear Friends,Yesterday, 11 prominent Dallas civic leaders lent their voices to…
Or it’s HOUSTON, honey, not HARVARD. Wanted you to see this week’s post in Culturemap Dallas. From time to time, I will be giving these brilliant folks — did you know Eric Celeste is over there, now, too? — a wrap of local market conditions and of course, weekly House Porn. I’m so happy we…
It’s time for our fourth installment of Building With the Boys —as many of you have asked us “when do we hear more about the Building Boys?” The house is really progressing; if I compared this to labor I’d say, “she’s pushing! We can see the head!” Herewith we get some great insight into the building process, great advice and a tiny peak at Tim Loecker and Justin Kettler’s relationship. Will it stand up to the extreme test of building?
Not to outdo your delicious find, Joanna, but I think I’ve died and gone to heaven. How can this home at 11 Nonesuch Road be so darn tootin’ CUTE? First of all, highly creative owners — Mary Poe is a marketing genius over at D Mag, and her husband, Bob, is a well-known Dallas artist. And you know buying a home from an artist, architect or designer adds in even more value because it is turn-key: all the design work has been done for you. You’ve got LOCATION on a fabulous street that will give your return address some panache and raised even the most Botoxed eyebrows. You’ve got 2177 square feet with a killer outdoors area … three bedrooms, two and half baths all of which have been redone by the best folks in town, two living areas and that outdoor living room with a dry-stack stone fireplace, vaulted and beamed ceiling and waterfall. I haven’t even gotten started on the kitchen — all redone with Carrera marble tops, Walker-Zanger backsplash, gas cooktops, double ovens, island for prepping. Best of all, your neighbors include the old Stanley Marcus estate at 10 Nonesuch Road, the home of Stanley Marcus for about 60 years, and host to everyone from Eleanor Roosevelt to Lady Bird Johnson to Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin, just to drop a few names. Asking $550,000 and hate to tell you, but it already has a contract on it.
