Magnolia/Mobil Oil Building Downtown

This photo was taken from the corner of Field and Commerce streets looking up the eastbound one-way Commerce. This street is sorta the southern boundary of Skyscrapers downtown. The red brick building is the Magnolia Oil building. Magnolia Oil was headquartered in Dallas until they merged with Vacuum and Socony Oil Companies and became Mobil Oil.

Atop the roof you can just make out the red Pegasus which is the symbol of Mobil and, by extension, a symbol of Dallas. This sign may be seen downtown for miles at night, as it is illuminated with intense red neon. Beautiful.
