A Community Conversation for Fort Worth

CDFW's main purpose is to engage the public to create a more inclusive and equitable city by focusing on ideas and concepts not addressed by either the public or private sector. 

 

It is only through community-led design that we can truly create a vision for Fort Worth that Improves the lives of its' citizens and creates a community that succeeds in "providing something for everyone."

Missing Middle Housing

In 2017, a sold-out crowd gathered for a day-long discussion on infill development of small-scale, high-quality residential projects that fall on the spectrum between low-density, single-family neighborhoods, and large, high-density apartment complexes.

the university redesign

The University Redesign

More than just an arterial roadway for our residents, University Drive is a global gateway to our community, but it does not visually and functionally represent who we are. Community Design Fort Worth did not want to just design a new corridor, but to elevate the discussion of how the public’s vision and thoughtful design can improve the corridor in a way that better reflects our community through aesthetic and safety improvements. 


By opening up an exchange of ideas about the future of the corridor, CDFW hoped to see a future University Drive that reinforces the values of our community, recognizes the changing needs of urban residents, and creates a memorable experience for the millions of people who visit Fort Worth each year.
