The Dallas Mavericks would really appreciate you not expressing how mad you are. Here's life after Luka at the American Airlines Center. dmagazine.com/sports/2025/02…

So. After 11 years, I'm leaving D Magazine to start something new with Sharon Grigsby. Here are some parting words on Dallas and what's next. Let's go. dmagazine.com/frontburner/20…

The ninth largest city in America holds tight to its kid gloves: "City officials made Comeaux available to each news outlet on his first day for only five minutes, and told media outlets they could not ask questions about specific policies, such as his stance on immigration."

Voted early today for Dallas City Council. Turnout is so bad that the election workers thank you like you're a veteran returning from war. Here's D Magazine's voter guide: dmagazine.com/guides/everyth…

I first wrote about Dallas loosening parking requirements four years ago, two years after the city began its research. Today, it reaches Council. The late Donald Shoup, in 21: “Of parking codes ... the ones in Dallas are the most bizarre I have ever seen.” dmagazine.com/frontburner/20…

Feels like it should be more of a local conversation that the city of Dallas is barely growing. Fort Worth has added 84,461 people since July 2020, a 9.1 percent increase. Dallas in that same period: 22,661, or 1.7 percent. Houston grew by 1.8 percent from 23 to 24 alone. Yikes!

We're building a newsroom here in Dallas where compelling, local enterprise journalism is foundational. I'm so pumped to announce Kelli—one of our city's very best reporters—is going to be a part of it. Sign up here, it's coming later this summer: labreportdallas.com

Imagine a car plowing through your kitchen at 100+ mph and the city responding with some traffic studies. dallasnews.com/news/2025/06/3…
