Thomas E. Stanley Explained

Thomas Edward Stanley II (May 1, 1917 in North Carolina  - January 23, 2001 in Dallas, Texas^[1]) was a Dallas-based American architect. He is known for his modernist glass and steel designs for buildings such as 211 North Ervay (1958) with architect Wyatt C. Hedrick and the First National Bank Tower (1965) with architect George Dahl. He is also known for his use of minimalist classical designs (often called New Formalism) for buildings such as the Sanger-Harris department store (1965) in Dallas, Texas and the Cambridge Tower (1965) in Austin, Texas.^{[2] [3]}
