Cultural District Happenings

Fort Worth’s Cultural District and 7th Street Corridor are changing rapidly now as work rolls forward on the Museum Place and West 7th projects. The cranes are up at Museum Place for the office/residential/retail building between Baily and 7th at the big intersection:

While the Museum Place live/work/retail building further down 7th is already topping out.

Meanwhile, the West 7th project next door continues to demolish block after block after block of existing structures, clearing the way for their big mixed-use development.

The Museum Place cranes can be seen in the background, looking over the West 7th demolitions (the old Taylor’s Rentals building in the center will be torn down soon).

Across 7th, another building is demolished for yet another part of the West 7th project.

In addition, survey crews have been seen at So7, indicating that work on the Shops & Lofts of So7 will be underway soon.

Finally, work has commenced on the Montgomery Plaza condos in the old Montgomery Ward building. It’s starting to become apparent how radically different 7th and the Cultural District are going to be in a very short while.
