Welcome to the Central Area
Today, roadway, highway, and railway infrastructure divide Fort Worth’s downtown core – separating East and West Fort Worth, impeding walkability and placemaking, and limiting our choices in mobility to the City's most dense and urban district. We can change this.
The Access Butler Place Plan aims to reconnect, strengthen, and build community throughout Fort Worth’s Central Area, which encompasses Downtown Fort Worth, Butler Place, and United Riverside.
Project Study Area
The beating heart of Fort Worth and the confluence of the City’s major infrastructure assets, commercial opportunities, and recreational destinations. The Central Area is the foundation of the Fort Worth’s identity.
The Core Study Area area brings together neighborhoods that support rich historical, cultural, and economic resources that make Fort Worth a regional and national asset.
Butler Place is located east of Downtown Fort Worth, one of the largest undeveloped properties left in the downtown core, yet is hemmed by the City’s transportation infrastructure. Butler Place is waiting for an opportunity to lift the City’s reputation into the future.
A comprehensive land use and infrastructure analysis will be conducted within the project boundaries three planning areas.
