In Topic: FW's Next Area to Revitalize?
31 December 2023 - 04:10 PM
It is interesting that Freds Texas Cafe and Magnolia Motor Lounge both decamped to roughly this area.Maybe this thread should read the next area of Fort Worth that should be revitalized. My choice would be the west Camp Bowie Boulevard strip from, maybe, Alta Mere to 820. Of course, this kind of dismal-looking commercial strip is not unique in Fort Worth. But the same could have been said about West Seventh before its 2010-era renaissance. What brought this to mind was the other day when my client and I had lunch in the vicinity. My client owns commercial property in the area and he was looking to buy a building for sale. I showed him the old Gentleman's Cabaret & Restaurant. He wasn't impressed.
It was never built to be walkable, so a revitalization to its midcentury car-centric glory would be interesting.
In Topic: HEB Considering Site for New Store

Reminds me of an HEB Pantry. Those came before regular sized HEB in Houston by like 2-3 years.
The first HEB I ever went to was a Pantry store in Crockett, TX. As a kid, I never understood the pantry part because they of course carried all the categories. Later learned (in employee orientation) that Pantry referred to the smaller selection of feesh foods compared to their main brand.

The project is tied to funding from the American Rescue Plan Act, which must be allocated by Dec. 31, 2024, and spent by Dec. 31, 2026. The mayor and council still plan to use the federal funds for the Evans and Rosedale Redevelopment project, Nettles said. The city hopes to get a new partner involved in the project by early 2024, he added.
Is the federal funding the reason that individual businesses can't develop parts of the land piecemeal? For example, if Aldi wanted to construct on the south side of Rosedale across from the plaza, would the federal grant prohibit that?
