Detail of the vestibule ceiling and antique light fixture of the Kirby Building, where I live.

The Kirby Building faces Akard & Main Streets in Downtown Dallas. The architectural firm of Barnett, Hayes, & Barnett of St. Louis designed this 17 story Gothic Revival skyscraper. Lang & Witchell of Dallas were the associate architects. The facades of the Kirby were created with tera cotta. The terra cotta has many details, shapes, and images within its sculptural relief in friezes, panels, cornices, and finials. The Kirby was originally built in 1913 to supplement the Adolphus Hotel (corner of Commerce and Akard). In 1999, the Kirby Building was converted into 156 apartments by Corgan Associates of Dallas. The Kirby Building was entered into the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
