Intermodal Transportation Center
9th & Jones Street - 2002
This new facility is designed to handle all modes of transportation
serving the downtown area. It was designed by Gideon Toal of Fort
Worth and will be a stop for the Trinity Railway Express, Amtrak, city bus
service, taxis, and the like. The first commuter rail trains started
service to
Dallas on December 3, 2001; however, the building was not
completed until January 2002. The center will likely be a
catalyst for future development in the southeast sector of downtown.
The design features a 90' clock tower that will serve as the terminus to
the 9th Street axis. Several light fixtures from the old Fort Worth Public
Library at 9th & Throckmorton adorn the entryway and second floor of the
facility. |
