    INVITING THE WORLD INVESTING IN DALLAS 2019 ANNUAL REPORT 1 “A robust tourism industry helps our great city thrive and is a critical component of the Dallas economy. The first thing that visitors to Dallas experience is our hospitality, making the industry vital to establishing and maintaining our reputation around the world.” Eric Johnson Mayor of the City of Dallas TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Message 3 Background & Mission 4 Financial Overview 8 Budget Categories 1| Sales & Incentives 9 2| Marketing 13 3| Site Visits & Tours 16 4| Local Arts & Events Incentives 19 5| Administration & Research 24 Investing in Dallas 26 Big goals. Great partnership. Dallas is well known for its beautiful skyline, its impressive buildings and its rich heritage. What we consider most impressive, though, is the spirit of its people, and our collective power to make change. Big change. Together since 2012, private hoteliers in Dallas have been able to work with the public in a unique partnership with a shared goal: Enhance tourism. Dallas was the first major city in Texas to establish a Tourism Public Improvement District, which by law allowed us to utilize travelers’ dollars in a strategic way to not only grow the number of visitors to our city, but also to enrich the lives of the people who live and work in Dallas. Other cities, seeing our success, have followed suit. As usual, Dallas leads the way, and in a big way, with the most wins by any Texas Tourism Public Improvement District to date. Since the Dallas Tourism Public Improvement District’s (DTPID) inception in 2012, together we have realized a multi-billion-dollar economic impact.

Cinto transformed the Concourse hall with a 153-foot mural covering the walls and ceiling in 24 shades of blue, shifting from dark to light to give the impression of the transition from night to day. The walls are decorated with intricate pen drawings of celestial elements such as stars and clouds. Low-level audio of sounds recorded by the artist (running water, rustling leaves, birds, etc.) further enhances the artist’s exploration of life and natural cycles.

What kind of culture if any has been created by Architourism and is it authen c or inauthen c. What kinds of developments have occurred there recently and what has this done to boost or change the local community. In the 2010 census the city of Dallas saw less than a one percent increase in its total popula on while Ft Worth increased by more than 38%. Did Architourism play a role in this? If so, what? Our analysis will begin with researching the demographics of the local users and types of tourists, their income level, race, educa on and loca on of residency. We will also include looking into the histories of selected sites with respect to their economies, culture, tourist ac vi es, and rela onship to the built environment.
