[QUOTE="johnmmil10, post: 254531, member: 138"] I believe the interior scenes would have been shot at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel by the Galeria (4801 Lyndon B Johnson Fwy) since that is the hotel that was providing production support at the time. Their pool (formerly enclosed) shows up in the series a few times so I suspect that this is their ballroom. Funny aside. I was supposed to attend a workshop at this hotel last spring just as the pandemic was getting in full swing. I was the only one of my coworkers looking forward to attending, although it was just because Dallas filmed there! The workshop ended up getting canceled so I have still not ventured to the hotel in person. Back to the location. The exterior is footage from LA. I suspect it was shot just outside the Mark Taper Forum (approximately from this location: [URL]https://www.google.com/maps/@34.0577016,-118.24811,3a,75y,282.11h,102.93t/data=!3m11!1e1!3m9!1sAF1QipMaodZc8hIEM9LPfwOOZwP9axZafGxR6gxC8llk!2e10!3e11!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipMaodZc8hIEM9LPfwOOZwP9axZafGxR6gxC8llk%3Dw203-h100-k-no-pi-0-ya45.67159-ro-0-fo100!7i8704!8i4352!9m2!1b1!2i38[/URL]). Although the location in Google Maps does not line up perfectly, it does give you an idea of the rounded portion of the building shown on the right screen, the covered walkway and looking onwards to the Power and Water building shown on the left of the screen. Fountains near the P&W building can be seen on screen. The fountains at the Power and Water building appear on screen once more in season 12 in a scene with Sue Ellen and Don Lockwood. [/QUOTE]
