SWANEY PRESS

Deep Ellum has gone through many phases — freedmen’s town, jazz hotbed and nightlife destination. Now, Deep Ellum is entering a new phase. Stakeholders are trying to balance the district's grit and authenticity with the push to make the district “Dallas’ first truly 24-hour neighborhood.”

Mark Cuban opened the Echo Lounge and Music Hall in Dallas and reminisced about the Clearview warehouse party days. Talking about Swaney and the other partners in the gig, he was most fascinated with promotion efforts of business cards that were handed out to give directions time and date of the party and the cleanup mess, setting up kegs and champagne bottles, for bowling at the end of the night. Cuban‘s opening featured Sting, but did not have the bowling.
