Was unable to get photos, but an exciting bit of news for those of us who have been waiting for some actual physical activity on the TRV: the Sims Motel on Henderson is coming down. The Sims is the first in what will be a series of demolitions of existing structures in the path of the new bypass channel. At long last, there’s visible activity – we are finally to the point of actually building this thing. I, for one, can’t wait to see more progress.
Responsible and thoughtful comments are welcome. Be aware, though, that this site exists in part as an advocacy site for New Urbanism and its potential to remake Fort Worth into an even more livable city than it is today. Thoughtful dissent is generally welcome insofar as it fosters thoughtful replies. Inflammatory dissent, whether intentional or not, will be deleted. Commenters whose comments we routinely delete will be banned. Nothing personal, but this is a privately owned and operated web site, and we are aiming for a specific tone and audience. Work within those guidelines and all will be well.
