It's interesting to contrast Bass Hall to the Meyerson. The Meyerson was funded with 50% public money, and cost something between $150 and 200 million. Bass came in at about $110 million, and was funded entirely from private donations.

I've always said that Dallas wants the appearance of being cultured, but Fort Worth just likes its music and art.

Personally, I prefer hearing a concert at Bass, but knowing how it all went together is part of my appreciation.
