I should recognize this. My first jobs were in downtown Dallas. Right across from Neiman Marcus. But that was more than 50 years ago. The commute was nasty even then.
Lived in Plano, TX just up central express from Dallas. I was there in mid 90's to 98 and roads were always under contruction expecially central expressway putting in light rail line.
Take care and God bless. Hugs.
