Dallas, Texas, in April 1913 was a city of roughly 90,000 people that had grown fast on cotton, railroads, and wholesale trade. Cotton buyers, merchants, and bankers worked in the downtown blocks shown here, and the Cotton Palace fair, begun in 1905, had made the city a regional showcase for the crop. Several rail lines and interurban trolleys radiated out to nearby towns, carrying farm produce and goods into the city. Residents of the day would have known Dallas as a fast-rising commercial center that was still building out its skyline, with new office buildings and department stores crowding older brick storefronts.
