Northside Fort Worth, TX: Advisory Services Panel Presentation

视频摘要：The Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, in cooperation with the City of Fort Worth, invited ULI to offer recommendations related to equitable development in and around Panther Island, with a focus on the diverse Northside and Historic Marine neighborhoods. 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. In the coming years, large-scale infrastructure investments on Panther Island will make 383 acres of public land holdings available for redevelopment. This anticipated development and investment on Panther Island have already begun to apply strong pressure upon real estate in the Northside and Historic Marine neighborhoods. Legitimate concerns around housing affordability, displacement, and loss of neighborhood character have led the City and Chamber to prepare for the potential changes that Panther Island development will bring. In response, the ULI panel offered recommendations around community engagement, anti-displacement, housing affordability, economic development, and arts and culture with a goal to ensure that the Northside community has a voice in—and benefits from—development on Panther Island.
