Founders Square

Founders Square

Founders Square

As you leave Lubben Plaza, parking lots are on both your left and right. The building beyond the parking lot on the right is the Dallas Convention Center. It covers over two million square feet and stretches all the way back to the railroad tracks leaving Union Station.

Continue on Young Street and cross Lamar Street. The rather spiffy brown building with the white trim is known as Founders Square. Built in 1914 and expanded in 1917 and 1923, Founders Square was originally a warehouse. Today it is used as an office building.
