27-acre development could be going in near the Fort Worth Stockyards

More development could be coming to the area surrounding the Fort Worth Stockyards.

Oldham Goodwin, a Bryan-based developer that built the Springhill Suites on the corner Northwest 23rd and Main Street, is pursuing a 27-acre mixed use project near the intersection of Northeast 29th and Main Street.

The city of Fort Worth granted the developer a permit for a drainage study for its property at 201 N.E. 29th St., according to city permitting records.

An email and phone call to the developer was not immediately returned.

Oldham Goodwin redeveloped the Wells Fargo bank building known as “the wedge” into the 170-room Marriott hotel in 2019. The building has 12,000 square feet of convention space and houses Chef Tim Love’s rooftop bar Ático, which overlooks the historic district.

San Antonio-based developer Kairoi announced in July 2022 it planned to build a 730-unit apartment complex on the site of the former Swift Armor Meat Packing Plant on the eastern edge of East Exchange Avenue.

That city changed some of its rules in December 2022 to make it more difficult to build apartments east of Packers Street and Niles City Boulevard. However, the Oldwin Goodwin project is outside that area.
