Reunion Tower

The Reunion Tower, an iconic signature of the downtown skyline soars 560 feet above Dallas. The tower has a timeless, contemporary design- the 260 lights on the exterior illuminating the night. As you make your way to the top, you're provided with a remarkable, astounding view of downtown Dallas...

 
The bar and lounge area at the Reunion Tower...Cheers!!
