I didn't want to be the one to say it.

Seriously, it's becoming a catch phrase...

Since the thread is now officially changed to "The *Official* Dallas-Ft. Worth Gallery", how about some pictures of Fort Worth?

The only suburbs I am going to bother posting pictures of are places with an actuall sense of place and identity, which leaves out all of those places you mentioned.

That being said, here are a few photos of Denton.

Denton is a nice town, but it still doesn't come close to measuring up to the aforementioned burbs

Basically, but they call it a "People Move." When Las Colinas was developed as a master planned community the developers really forsaw a need to have all of the building inter-connected via this monorail "people mover" looking thing. It's actually quite a site, I rode on it in the 90's. Unfortunately I haven't seen it personally in a long time.

Heres a video of the thing, from last week funny enough;
