he Longhorn Ballroom has opened a new multi-use building on its campus southeast of downtown Dallas along Riverfront Boulevard. The 26,000-square-foot facility was originally constructed in 1950 as part of music legend Bob Wills' Ranch House and once served as a motel for touring musicians. The restored two-story building retains its original aesthetic and features co-working spaces, residential live-work studios, and small restaurant areas.
