Sundance West

This mixed use structure was the first apartment building built in Downtown Fort Worth during its renaissance. It was designed by David M. Schwarz of Washington, D.C. and it wraps around Reata at Sundance Square. It was built by Linbeck Construction.  The 12 story building with 59 apartments has four distinct facades. On Throckmorton Street, the building is at its full height and is red brick with white cast stone trim and a green metal roof. On Houston Street, two and three story turn of the century facades have been replicated. (These buildings were present on the site up until construction started.) The 2nd & 3rd Street facades give the impression that there are four separate buildings facing each of those streets. Each portion of that facade steps down to make the transition from the 12 story apartment block to the 2 or 3 story pedestrian scale of Houston Street. On the ground floor of the building are shops and restaurants and a movie theater entrance. Floors 2 through 5 actually house the AMC Sundance 11 Theater. The apartments begin on the sixth floor. The theater was the first constructed in Downtown in over 50 years. Other principal retailers include: Pizzeria Uno, Etta's Place Bed and Breakfast, Washington Mutual, Charles Schwab, and Daddy Jack's Lobster & Chowder House.  The Washington Mutual space was designed by Halbach-Dietz Architects.
