Advisory Services Report: Fort Worth, Texas | The Northside

Resumen del informe: The Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the City of Fort Worth, invited ULI to convene an Advisory Services Panel to provide equitable development strategies for Panther Island and the Northside neighborhood. Panther Island is a peninsula and floodplain located at the convergence of the Clear Fork Trinity River and the West Fork Trinity River just north of downtown Fort Worth, Texas. In the coming years, large-scale infrastructure investments on Panther Island will make 383 acres of public land holdings available for redevelopment. The anticipated investment is already applying pressure on real estate in nearby areas, particularly the Northside and Historic Marine neighborhoods. Legitimate concerns around housing affordability, displacement, and loss of neighborhood character led the City and Chamber to seek advice from ULI around how to best prepare for the potential changes that Panther Island development will bring.
