[Denton Civic Center, exterior view at night]

This photo was taken by the Raymond Crouch of the Denton Record-Chronicle and appeared in the newspaper in anticipation for the dedication and open house that would occur on Saturday, November 18, 1967. The event was semi-formal and lasted all day. The building was also open for the following Sunday. What you see is an exterior view of the front of the Denton Civic Center taken at night. The building was designed by architect, O'Neil Ford. Ceramic lamps made by Beaumont Mood, adorn the exterior wall and hang from the pergola. The carved wood doors were made by artisan, Lynn Ford.

[Denton Civic Center, exterior view]

Exterior view of the front of the City of Denton Civic Center. The "community center" was designed by Texas architect, O'Neil Ford. The grand opening ceremony was held on November 18, 1867, and an open house was held that Saturday and Sunday. Interestingly, the Denton Record-Chronicle referred to the building as the "Denton Mini-Dome", although the structure was not a dome, but built like a bicycle wheel with a cable-suspension roof. Beaumont Mood, of San Antonio, fashioned the ceramic pendant lamps posted at intervals along the perimeter walls and doors. He also made the globe-shaped lamps which can be seen hanging from the pergola.
