2018 was another outstanding year in Downtown Fort Worth. New residential apartments opened on the west and north sides, and construction crews began new developments on Samuels Avenue and to the east of Downtown. In total, 1,078 apartment units were added to Downtown and 2,018 are currently planned or under construction. Adding to the appeal of Downtown as a residential option, Fort Worth ISD’s new flagship STEM and VPA academies opened at I.M. Terrell. This school opening is a major accomplishment of our Plan 2023 efforts. Frost Tower, Downtown’s newest office high-rise, opened to great fanfare and solid first-year occupancies. WeWork announced two new locations in Sundance Square and Freese and Nichols, Inc., announced their 2020 return to Downtown in Burnett Plaza. DFWI launched its digital office marketing campaign, which, as of December 31, had been seen more than 1 million times by select recipients. This public-private campaign is spreading the word out that Downtown Fort Worth is open for business and is competitive with other North Texas office headquarters options. As expected, eager local and national buyers quickly acquired XTO’s trophy properties. It was not a surprise to see the hospitality industry’s interest in these buildings, and announcements that the two largest would be converted to hotels were welcome news. Aloft opened this year and construction of the Marriot Autograph neared completion within the Sinclair building. Equipment rolled onto the AC Marriot site and construction began in early 2019. While all of this happened, the City of Fort Worth launched its comprehensive economic development plan and immediately began implementing recommendations, including an incentive policy that helps make Fort Worth more competitive. Streams and Valleys completed their ambitious plan for the river, a visionary blueprint for improving public access and use of Fort Worth’s most exciting, but underutilized, natural asset. These two planning efforts follow the recent completion of the Chamber of Commerce and Visit Fort Worth plans. These plans are coordinated and benefit from significant cross-organizational participation. All of this progress required commitment, participation, investment and persistence. The fruits of those labors resulted in skyline changes and a shared community vision of our future. Downtown Fort Worth, Inc., is committed to the future…and you are invited to help us achieve it by becoming a member. We hope this annual report helps you understand Downtown Fort Worth better. If there is anything we can do to help you, please let us know. Sincerely,

Rick Baumeister, Chairman Downtown Fort Worth, Inc.

agreement for the development of a full-service, boutique Kimpton Hotel at the 24-story 714 Main Street building.

Downtown Commercial Marketing Campaign The Downtown Public Improvement District and Downtown high-rise office-building owners launched a digital marketing campaign designed to increase national awareness of Downtown Fort Worth as a corporate headquarters location. The campaign is directed to out-of-market business leaders in cities that have recently exported companies to North Texas. The campaign features Fort Worth’s business-friendly environment and highlights reasons for relocating here. Top attributes include Downtown’s workforce, access to DFW airport, office options and vibrant, walkable Downtown. The ad campaign is funded by Sundance Square, Red Oak Realty, TIER REIT, 777 Main and Anthracite Realty Partners.

OBJECTIVE: Increase transportation connectivity for healthcare/cultural/tourism opportunities that support the business environment and future job growth.

Trinity Metro DASH Trinity Metro is working with stakeholders in both the Cultural District and Downtown Fort Worth to route a circulator service to better connect both areas. The proposed circulator, The Dash, would feature all-electric buses and be complimentary to riders, similar to the Molly the Trolley Downtown circulator. Service would primarily be along 7th Street to the Fort Worth Central Station (formerly Fort Worth Intermodal Transportation Center), making UNTHSC, Cultural District offerings, museums, and dining and entertainment options in both districts easily accessible.

PROGRESS MADE, MORE NEEDED

FWISD STEM & VPA

The City of Fort Worth’s Historic and Cultural Landmarks Commission (HCLC) has determined that the Texas and Pacific Warehouse can be reasonably rehabilitated. The City took steps to ensure the owner made minimum improvements that would stabilize the building. New temporary window coverings were installed, roof repairs were made, basement water issues and a host of other issues that threatened the building were addressed. The city will continue to seek enforcement of minimum building standards in an effort to save this important historic structure until redevelopment occurs.

Fort Worth ISD’s flagship Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) and Visual Performing Arts (VPA) campus opened in August 2018. The I.M. Terrell Academy for STEM & VPA is a Gold Seal High School of Choice, which has increased the availability of education options in Downtown. (More on page 10)

TCC Trinity River Campus - TABS In December 2016, the Amon G. Carter Foundation awarded a $95,000 grant to Tarrant County College Foundation to establish the Senior Capstone Program of the Texas Academy of Biomedical Sciences (TABS) - a partnership between the Fort Worth ISD, UNTHSC, and TCC Trinity River Campus. The program provides the opportunity for senior TABS students to examine and research issues within the community related to science and technology so they may design and implement a solution (Capstone Project) to a specific challenge/issue. After six months of planning, procuring equipment and preparing TABS teachers, the Senior Capstone Program became operational during the 2017-2018 academic year. In May 2018, the first class of Senior Capstone Program students graduated with a high school diploma and many with an Associate of Science degree.

OBJECTIVE:

Loop in Burnett Park

Coordinate with stakeholders to maximize potential for marketing plans that make Downtown the destination in Fort Worth to attract people at all times. Support and strengthen the “IT” factor that brings people into Downtown.

Loop, a larger-than-life cross between a music box, a zoetrope and a railway handcar, attracted thousands of visitors to Burnett Park and Downtown Fort Worth from September 28 – October 28, 2018. The family-friendly illuminated musical installation consisted of 12 giant zoetropes – an optical toy invented in the 19th century that predates the animated film – that show images in rapid succession, creating the illusion of motion. The Burnett Foundation and TIER REIT funded the interactive exhibit. Fort Worth was the first city south of Washington, DC, to host the exhibit. Loop was featured in print publications including 360 West, Fort Worth Texas Magazine, Dallas Morning News and Fort Worth Business Press, and made the front page of the Star-Telegram. Loop was featured on air on Fox 4 News, KTVT CBS 11 News, WFAA- ABC Good Morning Texas, KRLD and WBAP, and took social media by storm for the month of October 2018, reaching over 800,000 fans and followers. Downtown Fort Worth Initiatives, Inc., produced Loop in Burnett Park.

DFWI.org DFWI.org offers map-enabled interactive content that allows users to explore Downtown and see nearby attractions, parking, events and related news stories. The interconnectivity of unique page views the site allows users to easily navigate DFWI.org in 2018 Downtown’s offerings.

Burnett Park Through a grant from The Burnett Foundation and a contract with the City of Fort Worth, DFWII provides the administration, management, maintenance and landscaping for Burnett Park. In 2018, Burnett Park, with funding support from Burnett Plaza, held several events and initiatives that encouraged Downtown residents, building tenants and workers to enjoy the beautiful outdoor space.

Events included: - - - - - -

Sixth Annual Main Table DFWI planned the 6th Annual Main Table dinner presented by Autobahn Fort Worth for Sunday, September 23, 2018. The dinner for nearly 500 was to be held on beautiful Main Street to highlight five of Downtown’s premier steakhouses – Grace, Reata Restaurant, Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steak House, Ruth’s Chris Steak House and The Capital Grille. New for the 6th annual event, Jon Bonnell and Waters Restaurant in Sundance Square planned to serve hors d’oeuvres in General Worth Square at the onset of the event. The weather did not cooperate with our committee’s plans and forced our soldout crowd into the participating restaurants per our “Plan B.” All six restaurants made last-minute modifications to their spaces to accommodate their guests! Waters Restaurant delivered 100 appetizer plates to each restaurant. DFWI board member and The Capital Grille Managing Partner, Gloria Starling, chaired the event. PRESENTING SPONSOR

The city’s love of fine art and music was showcased at the 33rd MAIN ST. Fort Worth Arts Festival, April 19–22. Over 200 juried artists, including over 60 local and Texas artists, presented a remarkable collection of original art throughout Downtown. Over 80 national, regional and local bands brought an eclectic and multicultural blend of rock, blues and pop to Downtown on the UT Arlington Stage and the Sundance Square Stage. The Young People’s Art Fair presented by Tarrant County College provided an opportunity for young artists ages 7–17 to sell their work and MAIN ST. Creates! presented by Wells Fargo gave youngsters a chance to release their inner creativity.

GM Financial Parade of Lights

Offer CHANGE Community partners collaborated with the City of Fort Worth to create a panhandling awareness campaign. The new program, which benefits the Tarrant County Homeless Coalition, is about educating people who give money to panhandlers. The campaign explains the negative, unintended consequences of well-meaning generosity, and encourages people to donate where funds can be used for homeless housing-related services.

A beautiful and chilly evening set the stage for the 36th edition of the GM Financial Parade of Lights Celebrating 100 Years of Cook Children’s on November 18. New presenting sponsor GM Financial featured GM vehicles and a new Facebook Live production of the full parade, and Cook Children’s culminated their centennial celebration by handing out over 20,000 blue lights, supported by Linbeck. Four Cook Children’s patients were celebrated as Grand Marshals. One hundred and eight entries were featured with the Parade theme, “Through the Eyes of a Child.” Twelve thousand reserved seats were purchased, with thousands more people lining the 1.5-mile parade route. A new staging area improved traffic flow throughout the Downtown area.

Transportation 27-mile Commuter rail connecting Downtown Fort Worth to DFW International Airport began January 9, 2019

Plan 2023 Vision Downtown should be a vibrant and sustainable environment, where people of all ages and mobility choices can be accommodated efficiently and safely. Downtown Fort Worth should: • Be the regional multimodal transportation hub for Fort Worth and Tarrant County. • Serve as the gateway for those arriving in Fort Worth. • Fully integrate pedestrian, transit, automobile and bicycle infrastructure and networks within the Downtown core. • Have substantial linkages connecting to both the region and surrounding neighborhoods.

Hemphill/Lamar Connector Construction on the Hemphill/Lamar connector is on schedule for completion in March 2020. The project will include new vehicular, pedestrian and bike connections between Downtown and the Near Southside. The project will also include green walls and public art entitled “Flight” by nationally renowned artist Dan Corson.

Hemphill/Lamar

The City of Fort Worth has engaged Dunaway to explore a two-way connection from the Hemphill/Lamar connector at Lancaster to Third Street to continue north bound traffic flow into the core of Downtown.

Bike Plan and Bike Share The PID continues to support Fort Worth Bike Sharing (FWBS) through an annual sponsorship of $10,000 and representation on the FWBS Board of Directors.

TEXRail

OBJECTIVE: Adopt a regional rail plan and develop a comprehensive regional transit plan.

TEXRail On Dec. 31, 2018, Trinity Metro hosted its first riders on TEXRail at its inaugural “Golden Ticket” event. Service on the new 27-mile commuter rail connects Downtown Fort Worth to DFW International Airport began Jan. 9, 2019. During opening weekend, more than 11,000 passengers rode TEXRail. The commuter line is projected to serve approximately 8,000 daily riders from nine stations by the end of 2019.

FWBS has grown to 46 stations and 350 bikes throughout the city since its 2013 launch. Eighteen of those stations are in Downtown. The system helps residents and visitors in Downtown Fort Worth make the last-mile connection to other districts including the Near Southside, the Cultural District, the Historic Stockyards, the TCU campus area and the Trinity River. In 2018, over 13,000 users of the FWBS system took 43,000 trips totaling over 226,000 miles. Downtown stations continue to be among the most popular in the system with Sundance Square South, Sundance Square North, Omni Hotel Fort Worth, Trinity Uptown, City Hall, T&P North, Convention Center, Belknap & Taylor and 777 Main all ranking in the Trips by users of the FWBS system top half of stations for bike checkouts. Just over 14,000 bikes were checked out of Downtown stations in 2018.

OBJECTIVE:

Active Transportation Plan

Develop a comprehensive central city transit strategy and system that connects regional rail at the Fort Worth Central Station and the T&P Station through Downtown to the surrounding communities in conjunction with a regional transit plan.

DFWI staff has participated in public meetings for the City of Fort Worth’s Active Transportation Plan. The Active Transportation Plan organizes and prioritizes improvements for people who walk, bike and use transit. This plan will update the Bike Fort Worth Plan and Walk Fort Worth Plan, create a trail master plan and integrate Trinity Metro’s Transit Master Plan. It is anticipated that the plan will be adopted in spring 2019.

City Transit Study Work is currently underway to update and expand on Trinity Metro’s Transit Master Plan completed in 2015, Transit Moves Fort Worth. The City is working with Nelson/Nygaard Consulting Associates to establish a vision for transit and transportation investments.

TPW Monthly Coordination Meetings DFWI staff and members of the Transportation Committee meet monthly with City of Fort Worth Transportation and Public Works staff to ensure active and strategic coordination of planned improvements and maintenance in Downtown.

I-35 In July 2018, the North Tarrant Express (NTE) 35W project opened, two months ahead of schedule. The $1.6 billion project rebuilt existing free lanes and added four new toll lanes between Downtown and North Tarrant Parkway. The project added two new managed-lane access ramps in and out of Downtown Fort Worth at Belknap Street and Weatherford Street in January 2019.

OBJECTIVE: In conjunction with the Urban Design objectives, work to advocate and ensure all streets and trails in Downtown are pedestrian-friendly. Use walkability improvements as a tool to create connections between the Downtown core and other developed areas. This will require a commitment that extends beyond the term of this 10-year plan.

Dockless Bikes and Scooters DFWI took an aggressive stance on the dockless bike and electric scooter proposals for Downtown. DFWI recommends that the City consider only managed and docked systems and has raised concerns about safety, enforcement and the precedent of allowing businesses with unmanaged inventory to operate on public sidewalks.

1st - 3rd Street Pedestrian Improvements In early 2018, DFWI completed construction of pedestrian improvements connecting 1st Street to 2nd Street and improving the pedestrian experience along 3rd Street by widening sidewalks, enhancing streetscape elements and improving crossings. The $750,000 project was funded by BNSF to help mitigate the closure of 1st Street. DFWI is currently exploring the potential for a mural under the railroad bridge.

East Bank Extension

Mistletoe Heights Pedestrian Bridge and East Bank Extension The Tarrant Regional Water District has begun work on the trail connection to Rotary Park and the Phyllis Tilley Bridge. This improvement will help complete the connection from the residential neighborhoods in the south to Downtown along the river and complete a 2.5-mile loop. The City completed the Mistletoe Heights pedestrian bridge last year. The total project cost is $3.7 million. It is expected to be completed in the summer of 2019.

Bus Loading Zones DFWI staff worked with City of Fort Worth staff to ensure that downtown stakeholders and hoteliers understood the policy affecting proposed on-street bus loading zones. City staff was asked to create an ordinance to address the needs of tour operators and other high-capacity passenger vehicles in areas with high-demand traffic conditions. As a result, 12 bus loading zones have been created to provide a safer environment for pedestrians, bus customers and drivers, and to minimize congestion.


OBJECTIVE: Encourage a more efficient and customer-oriented approach to on-street parking and use of parking garages.

Free Public Parking In 2018 the Downtown TIF leased space in five private garages to provide free public parking to support Downtown’s retail, dining and entertainment venues. The TIF has 3,811 free evening/weekend parking spaces open to the public in those garages. The TIF has obligated funds to ensure ample free night/weekend parking through 2025. • Sixty-four 2½-hour free spaces are available in the Sundance Square 3rd Street garage for patrons of the Fort Worth Library with library validation.

Free and pay public parking options can be found at www.fortworthparking.com. The city of Fort Worth has made great progress in making mobile-pay options available throughout Downtown. To date more than 2,650 spaces are available in the central business district with mobile pay options.

OBJECTIVE: Improve wayfinding.

Educational Wayfinding

Transportation Committee

Inspired by County Commissioner Roy Brooks, DFWI worked with the City of Fort Worth and added supplementary signage to our wayfinding program to direct residents and visitors to Downtown institutions of higher learning.

Consistent Signage DFWI staff continue to work with the City of Fort Worth and advocate for consistent signage with the hope that this will reduce the number of drivers who travel the wrong way down one-way streets. This year, Transportation and Public Works staff completed signage at four key intersections that have been problematic along Belknap. As funding allows, intersections will be addressed following the newly created Downtown Standards.

OBJECTIVE: Downtown Access and Circulation Study Implementation.

Downtown Area Circulation Study As part of Plan 2023, DFWI engaged Kimley Horn to investigate a list of specific intersection and roadway improvements that could be addressed in the future. DFWI has been advocating for the further study of two-waying Taylor and Lamar Streets to allow more access into the core of downtown via the Hemphill/Lamar improvements. The City of Fort Worth has engaged Dunaway to study the issue.

Urban Design, Open Space and Public Art

The public realm of Downtown should: Be clean and feel safe. Be walkable with engaging pedestrian rhythm. Be everybody’s neighborhood. Be highly appealing to all ages. Be connected. Be fun and creative. Provide an environment that encourages relationships and partnerships.

Plan 2023 Vision Downtown’s urban design, open spaces and public art should promote community pride and engagement, attract national and international acclaim, add vitality and foster intellectual stimulation. It should reinforce activity both day and night by providing a high-quality environment defined by intriguing design and arts – permanent and temporary, contemporary and historic.

22

Be timeless.


OBJECTIVE:

Heritage Park Plaza

Encourage high-quality overall design of Downtown.

Downtown Design Standards DFWI staff works closely with city staff and the DFWI Downtown Design Review Committee to review Downtown Design Review Board (DDRB) cases. In 2018, 240 DDRB cases came before the committee; 228 of the cases were approved administratively. The DFWI Design Review Committee provides recommendations to cases that require DDRB approval.

Construction Standards and Guidelines In order to maintain Downtown as a safe and inviting place where AC Hotel Rendering businesses continue to thrive even during construction, DFWI, in partnership with the City of Fort Worth, is leading an effort to create standards to better manage and administer construction projects as they affect pedestrian and auto traffic. This tool could be used in other areas experiencing a high level of growth and pedestrian activity. DFWI hired Pape-Dawson to help provide guidance to DFWI and City staff in drafting the Downtown construction standards and guidelines.

DFW WalkUP Wake-Up Call Study DFWI provided funding for the Fort Worth/Dallas WalkUP Wake-Up Call study led by Christopher Leinberger of George Washington University School of Business. The analysis looked at development patterns in the Metroplex and studied neighborhoods including Downtown Fort Worth. The results indicate that there is an extremely high demand for walkable urban neighborhoods and that both public and private return on investment in these areas is significantly higher than in auto-dominated areas. The full study can be found at dfwi.org/about/publications.

OBJECTIVE: Increase the prominence and usefulness of Downtown open spaces and parks and create new park and green space opportunities.

T&P Terminal and Pedestrian Connectivity Lancaster TIF #8 Board approved $1.75 million for public improvements of the city easement between Lancaster Avenue and the T&P Terminal. Funding for improvements to the tunnel connecting the terminal to the TRE parking and transit-oriented redevelopment site on Vickery were also approved. These improvements will make a strong and more formal connection between Downtown, transit options and the Near Southside.

Trinity River Strategic Master Plan In November 2018, Streams and Valleys unveiled Confluence, The Trinity River Strategic Master Plan. DFWI staff participated in the planning process. This ambitious and visionary 10-year master plan for the river includes major projects throughout the City, but also includes projects that impact Downtown, such as Forest Park Boulevard and Heritage Park Plaza.

The Amon G. Carter Foundation, Streams and Valleys and the Sid Richardson Foundation provided funds for the construction documents, the preliminary engineering and the conceptual master plan for Heritage Plaza and surrounding area. The city’s 2014 Bond Package provides $1.5 million for construction of the plaza, and the Downtown Tax Increment Financing District (TIF) allocated up to $1 million for construction. In 2018, DFWI and the City finished its review of Heritage Park Plaza concept the Master Plan elements and incorporated street crossing and Paddock Park improvements as needed linkages and usable public space enhancements. Project planning will continue to advance in 2019.

Streetscape Elements The City of Fort Worth and the Lancaster TIF approved funding for landscaping enhancements including trees and native plants to complement the Avenue of Lights along the Lancaster medians. The City will work to implement the concept plan with stakeholder input to ensure high-quality design and execution.

OBJECTIVE: Encourage the installation of public art throughout Downtown.

Public Safety/Municipal Courts Building Artist Riley Holloway’s design for a glass triptych on the large glass windows above the double doors leading into the lobby reflects themes of social justice and equality of Fort Worth’s diverse citizenry. Franz Mayer of Munich will begin fabrication of the work in March and it will be unveiled in Fall 2019.

Iconic Artworks The Fort Worth Public Art Master Plan Update, adopted by City Council in October 2017, recommends 4 locations for destination-quality artworks by nationally and internationally-recognized artists, referred to as “Iconic Artworks”. While the first – a projection mapping project for Pioneer Tower in the Cultural District – is underway, the Fort Worth Art Commission is planning for the terminus of Main Street at 9th Street to be commissioned in association with the redesign of the north end of the Convention Center. Downtown stakeholders will soon be invited to participate in the planning process.

Public Improvement Districts

Security Enhancement PID #1 funds and provides support for a number of security enhancement programs, including the Downtown Fort Worth Police Mounted Patrol Unit, Downtown Security Group and the Fort Worth Police Bike Support Group. This year the Support Group privately funded $21,000 in bicycles and gear, and a $5,000 bike trailer for the Downtown bicycle unit. PID funds were not used for these acquisitions. DFWI staff member Matt Beard serves as the Chairman of the Fort Worth Police Bike Support Group and participates in the Downtown Security Group.

Fort Worth Public Improvement District (PID #1), founded and administered by DFWI, offers a comprehensive program of services including maintenance and landscaping, hospitality, security enhancements, market research, public space management, communications and marketing, transportation solutions and planning.

Maintenance and Landscaping PID #1 contractors provide approximately 150 man-hours of streetscape maintenance each day. Sidewalks are tended on a daily basis with highpressure washers and hand sweeping. Light poles and benches are painted, graffiti and stickers are removed, trees are trimmed, tree lights installed, grackles and other migratory birds are relocated with vigor, grass is mowed, garbage is removed, recyclables are collected and other jobs are performed to keep Downtown’s cleanliness and appeal at the highest level. Fort Worth’s grackle abatement program is used in numerous U.S. cities and our streetscape crew is a fast response team, addressing issues that arise in busy downtown.

Downtown Ambassadors In response to growing issues of sidewalk behavior and a growing resident, office and visitor population in need of assistance, DFWI added Downtown Ambassadors to the list of services provided by the Downtown PID. The Ambassadors circulate throughout Downtown in their vibrant green pickup, on foot, on bicycles and on Segways. They assist visitors and create a friendly and welcoming environment in addition to serving as extra sets of eyes and ears on the street. The Ambassadors also interact with the homeless and panhandling populations. Property owners are consulted when campers are found and outreach is made to the Police and Sheriff’s departments when official action is warranted. The PID has a contract with DRC for proactive homeless outreach services and the Ambassadors have been incorporated into that effort.

Seasonal Landscape Planting PID #1 crews are responsible for the care and maintenance of approximately 13,500 square feet of planters. Over 75,000 flowering plants are replaced annually. MAINTENACE AND LANDSCAPE

In 2018, the FWDNA held many events to continually support Downtown businesses and expose residents to everything the Downtown community has to offer. Events included an evening with Mayor Betsy Price at City Club, Trinity Metro Update with Bob Baulsir at T&P Tavern, a tour and tasting at Acre Distillery, and more.

PID #1 Work Plan Committee A subcommittee of the PID Advisory Board was created to identify Downtown enhancement opportunities for public spaces and the pedestrian environment. The PID Work Plan committee has identified signage opportunities, landscaping, public art, sidewalk enhancements and lighting improvements to be addressed.

Downtown Banner Program The Downtown Banner Program administered by DFWI’s Marketing Department provides display space on Main, Houston and Throckmorton streets. The program offers nonprofit organizations an opportunity to market their special events in Downtown.
