Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
About three years back we stumbled across the mother of all modern manses being built where Northaven Road turns into E. Ricks Circle, only to discover it was the future residence of country singer Darren Kozelsky. Hadn't thought of it since, not till I drove past it again a couple of weeks ago. Said the 7-year-old in the backseat: "Looks like a convention center hotel." Then, this morning, this e-mail shows up from a Friend of Unfair Park: "Now it's for sale! Only $11,500,000."
Sure enough, looks like the almost-15,000-sf behemoth went on the market only yesterday, finally affording us a tour, however virtual it may be. Always did want a pool that wraps around the house. A moat, I think it's called. Still, I'm laying out that kind of dough, I'm moving into the ginormo Macaroni Grill on Strait. Way bigger kitchen.
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
