Hot Property: A 1960s Mid-Century Modern in North Dallas

Built in 1969, this mid-century modern residence sits on nearly an acre with landscaped grounds bordering the Bachman Branch of Bachman Creek. Inside, unique architectural forms, natural materials, and a statement shade of blue give the home a personality all its own.

Keith Lee Joins Former UFC Fighter Brother For Dallas Restaurant Opening

The social media star will join former UFC fighter Kevin Lee on Nov. 1, for the grand opening of Kevin’s comfort-food restaurant, Braised, at 1499 Regal Row, Suite 205, Dallas. The brothers will give complimentary meals to the first 30 customers, giving early visitors a chance to meet the pair while getting their first taste of the restaurant.
