"Fort Worth, Texas" a Fort Worth Travel Page by lonestar_philomath

Fort Worth used to be the terminus for cattle ranchers. The stock yards are kind of touristy but sill exists. Currently the city is going through a transformation. Many of the buildings in downtown are being turned into lofts and business offices. A cultural center continues developing. There are numerous world known Museums in Fort Worth ( the Kimbal, Modern Art, Cow Girl Musem, and Amon Carter to name a few) as well as other local establishments like the Will Rogers Coliseum & Auditorium complex, Meyerson Symphony, and Sundance Square!!!!

This location will no longer continue to grow as I have moved on to a new phase of my life. Check out my Virginia and Washginton, D.C. pages for my where abouts!

My favorite picture of Fort Worth to date. The city hall reflected in the windows of the administration building.

The Annual Fort Worth Stock Show starts today, 12 January 2007. There is an All Western Stock Show Parade tomorrow along Main and Houston Streets. There are many things happening during the Stock Show. Also tomorrow (the 13th) there is a seminar at the FW Nature Center and Refuge concerning "Woodpeckers: Nature's Drills".
