Central Arlington Mixed-Use District Project Description Our goal is to create a vibrant and diverse pedestrian neighborhood offering a great place for people to live and attend class, and access university life as well as community, retail and social activities.

This project creates a true college-town main street consistent with the UTA campus master plan, weaving together community, religious, social and campus uses with housing and retail development. The proposed multi-phased pedestrian development area is approximately 20 acres bounded by Pecan Street to the west, UTA Boulevard to the north, Mitchell Street to the south, and Center to the east. The project includes infrastructure improvements in conjunction with a mixed-use facility that includes 372 student housing units, 60+ new jobs, 47,000 square feet of retail/restaurant, 3,574 parking space garage, and a 6,000 seat basketball arena on the 20 acre site.

Trinity Bluff Project Description Trinity Bluff Development is truly the answer to many dreams. The movement from the suburbs to the inner city has proven effective in large municipalities across the United States. As air quality concerns and energy conservation encourage responsible alternatives to urban sprawl, a contiguous parcel of land in excess of thirty acres has been assembled within walking distance to Sundance Square in downtown Fort Worth. Trinity Bluff promises over 2000 residences to the Central City over a ten year period. This downtown neighborhood development provides needed urban housing master planned under the critical eye of Lincoln Property Company. This combination of expertise and location make this development both remarkable and sustainable. During the completion of this project, over $400 million will be invested by the private sector. Over 400 jobs will be sustained on average over the 10 years to completion. In 2005 the first phases began construction. The streetscape funds in this request will most assuredly pay many dividends as it helps raise the bar that inspires a great sense of place.
