The Magnolia Petroleum Company’s Pegasus, a forty-foot long and thirty-foot high red neon horse, was placed in 1934 atop a 50-foot tower anchored to the roof of the Magnolia Building. The Pegasus and its 1,000 feet of neon tubing rotated every minute and a half.

It was the city’s tallest point for almost a decade and remains one of Dallas' most famous landmarks. Soon after its installation, Dallas citizens could claim that the city, still considered a provincial outpost of cowboys and cattle by the rest of the nation, was no longer a one-horse town.

The Magnolia Building was completed in 1922, at the time the 16th-tallest building in the country, and housed the offices of the Magnolia Petroleum Company.

The building’s architect, Sir Alfred Charles Bossom, British baron and member of Parliament, created a blend of Beaux-Arts classicism and modern 20th-century high-rise in his design for the building.

Today, the building serves guests as the Magnolia Hotel, a boutique hotel in the heart of downtown Dallas. The building and its red Pegasus are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
