That's the Fort Worth Water Gardens, which were temporarily closed in 2004 after 4 people drowned there (one of them drowned, and the remaining 3 drowned trying to save her).
I remember Phyllis Watson also doing one of the early evening newscasts too..I think she AND John Criswell did 5pm after Tracy and Midge moved to 6PM. (Tracy and John still did 10 PM). I think at THIS point, the Bank of America tower was being built or completed (the lights around the Renaissance Tower were gone around '86 or '87).
Can anyone tell me what the picture is behind Stan Miller? It's very pretty, but I don't know what that location is

WFAA is still the best news station in the country! These old clips bring back a lot of memories of living in DFW.

Haha Kevin McCarthy -- wasn't he the guy that pushed Clarice Tinsley into a pool at a dinner party filled with news folk and dignitaries?

@lobstertexas Yes, and he got canned the following Monday. Goes to show you don't mess with Queen Clarice.

Great clips, I had no idea the late Reggie Harris worked in DFW... he was a great reporter in NYC.

Also, I noticed the 5 PM open that you uploaded..I'm guessing this is Mydog's own copy.
