In 1934 this brilliant neon Pegasus icon was on the top of the headquarters of the Magnolia Oil Co., which was the tallest building in Dallas for years. The red Pegasus stayed lit atop the Magnolia building until 1999 and was replaced by a shiny new version that was lit on January in 2000. The original Pegasus was hidden away in storage until 2015, when it was renovated and placed in front of the Omni Dallas Hotel downtown. Today Dallasites are obsessed with this winged horse and consider it as a symbol for the city.
