Santa Fe Freight Station
1401 Jones - 1938 (FWHSE)
Constructed in 1938 as one of the improvements to the Fort Worth Union
Depot, this depot housed inbound and outbound freight, cold storage, and
offices. This building's design is utilitarian; however, it does
feature decorative brick work, a stepped cast stone parapet, and a large
neon Santa Fe sign on the north end of the building. The structural
system used for the building is reinforced concrete. After the
building was restored, it opened as the Fort Worth Rail Market, but that
venture was not successful and the current plans are to lease the building
for office space. |
