This week, enjoy a wide variety of events that are all located within easy access to the Stoneleigh.  Thanks to Donna Harris’ weekly newsletter, it’s easy to see that the hotel is right in the center of all the action.

This week, enjoy Texas Stampede, the Wrangler ProRodeo Tour Championship taking place Friday through Sunday at American Airlines Center.  If you’re feeling patriotic, check out the Dallas Veteran’s parade on Saturday.  At night, enjoy the 31st Anniversary of Dallas Margarita Ball and Society, a casino-themed party accompanied by smooth jazz courtesy of the David Carr Jr. Band.

Next week, the Stoneleigh will take part in the Slocum Street Style Event, which is another cool opportunity for the public to have a hands-on sneak peek at the hotel before it opens.

This year’s event will take place on October 4th, 2007, and will feature an insider’s look at the Penthouse, provided by its designer, Carleton Varney. Mr. Varney will be on hand to talk about the Stoneleigh project from 5-7 pm. Here’s a look at a Pegasus News Article that discusses more about what’s in store for this year.

Since there’s plenty of events and attractions in the Uptown and Victory Park area, it can be hard to keep track of what’s on next. Yet, thanks to Donna Harris‘ weekly newsletter, folks can find out about all kinds of events and attractions that are just a stone’s throw from the Stoneleigh.

For example, just this week she mentions the Wine for me Argentina? tasting event next Wednesday and The Republic 5th Anniversary Bash this Saturday. She also talks about the Freedom Run in Victory Park, a 9/11 exhibition which features a live feed directly to Iraq where friends, families, and any joe schmo can have the chance to connect with the troops. Stay tuned for more Stoneleigh area events and project updates.

Here’s a look at the new Stoneleigh billboards located at Cedar Springs and Cole Avenue in Uptown Dallas:

Just the other day, I caught a show at the House of Blues in Dallas, It’s a cool new venue in the Uptown Dallas area, just down the road from the American Airlines Center, and just a few blocks from the Stoneleigh. 

Inside, the walls were filled with all kind of works by local artists featuring longhorns, guitars, and musical legends.  In fact, there’s even a “wall of god’ featuring over a hundred busts of music’s greatest. 

Check it out sometime, it’s sure to be a frequent stop for many great artists.  In the coming months, a wide range of muscians will be stopping by, including the B-52s, Peter Frampton, Pat Benatar, Wolfmother, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.
