  • Saturday Roundup: Arrests, Celebrations, and Community News in Fort Worth
    2025/06/28
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Saturday, June 28, 2025.

    Our Fort Worth skies greet us with early sunshine and a high reaching the low nineties today, so keep your water bottle handy if you’re heading out. Late afternoon clouds might roll in, but rain chances hover near zero. It’s a great day for outdoor events, so let’s talk about what’s happening around town.

    In breaking news, authorities have made a major arrest after a Fort Worth man confessed to a shocking crime—a woman’s murder and the disposal of her body off a bridge. Police say the investigation is ongoing, and neighbors near the Trinity Park area are on alert. In other courtroom developments, the man convicted of randomly killing a TCU student outside a West 7th bar back in 2023 has now been sentenced, bringing some closure to a case that rattled our community.

    From city hall, leaders this week extended the Main Street pilot program for another two years. This means more improvements are on the way for our downtown, including enhanced landscaping and new pedestrian features that should make trips down Main safer and more enjoyable. There’s also been a renewed city focus on homelessness. Council approved nearly twelve million dollars over the next three years to support unsheltered neighbors, especially as rising rents continue to squeeze local families.

    In community news, we’re starting the morning off strong with Trinity Pride Fest taking over downtown today. Expect vibrant live performances scattered across venues and a festive crowd all celebrating diversity and inclusion. For music lovers, World Blend Coffee on Basswood Boulevard is hosting its first ever music festival, featuring everything from rap to classic rock, and it’s free for everyone.

    Looking ahead, Fourth of July celebrations begin early this year. If you’re in the mood for a parade, Denton’s Yankee Doodle Parade kicks off nearby at 9 a.m. today. And tomorrow, families can swing through the Stockyards for the Cowtown Friends Dog Adoption Event, where adoptions and ice cream treats await.

    On the economic front, the local job market remains energized, with continuing job fairs like last week’s “Continuing the Climb” event drawing hundreds of job seekers and connecting residents with new opportunities. Over in real estate, the market is holding steady but competitive—median home prices are just above three hundred fifty thousand, and new listings in the hospital district and Tanglewood are drawing quick interest.

    In education, TCU continues its campus expansion with new projects along Lev Avenue, aiming to create more student housing and modernized learning spaces. Meanwhile, local high schools reported strong finishes for their baseball and softball teams, with Arlington Heights earning a spot at regionals.

    For a feel-good finish today, let’s tip our hats to Cowtown’s own animal rescue volunteers, who last weekend reunited a lost golden retriever named Lucky with his family near Forest Park—after being missing for more than five days.

  • Cooper Apartments Fire Update, City Council Debates Equity, and a Packed Cultural Weekend in Fort Worth
    2025/06/27
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Friday, June 27, 2025. We begin with breaking news: three days after a massive six-alarm fire tore through the Cooper Apartments on West Rosedale Street, nearly 850 residents remain displaced. The fire, ruled accidental and caused by an electrical issue, collapsed part of building one, trapping some belongings and leaving several people unable to return. While no casualties were reported, a few pets are still unaccounted for as rescue crews continue to assess the damage and clear debris. Today, the property management is holding a distribution in the parking garage near the mail center—from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.—offering donated clothes, toiletries, and essentials at no cost to those affected.

    Over at city hall, council members recently considered a major decision affecting the diversity and inclusion department. Last week, a resolution to suspend the department and dissolve the city’s business equity ordinance was on the table, as leaders weighed the risk of losing more than 277 million dollars in federal funding. While the final vote is pending, the conversation has sparked debate about local inclusivity and the impact on women- and minority-owned businesses.

    Turning to jobs and real estate, the reentry job and resource fair at the Continuing the Climb event earlier this month saw hundreds of Tarrant County residents take steps toward new opportunities. On the real estate front, rental rates are still climbing across Fort Worth, adding pressure for those seeking affordable housing, especially in the wake of the apartment fire. Meanwhile, development near TCU continues as the university works to expand its east campus, recently consolidating land along Bailey Avenue to make way for new dorms.

    This weekend, Fort Worth’s cultural pulse is strong. Music lovers can catch Blue October at Tannahill’s Tavern and Music Hall, while Ashley McBryde brings her award-winning country sound to Billy Bob’s Texas. The Trinity Pride Fest is also drawing crowds, along with new theater productions and comedy shows. If you’re looking for something different, the next few days offer a packed schedule of concerts, drag shows, and film screenings—something for every taste.

    Local schools remain busy, though specific sports results from the past day are still coming in. Stay tuned for updates as we get closer to the end of the school year.

    On the weather front, expect a warm day with plenty of sunshine, making it perfect for outdoor events and weekend plans. Skies will stay mostly clear, so water and sunscreen are recommended for anyone heading out.

    In public safety, no major crime incidents have been reported in the past 24 hours, but we remind everyone to stay vigilant as we support our neighbors impacted by the recent tragedy on West Rosedale.

    Finally, amid the challenges of the week, we see our community rallying together. From donations at the Cooper Apartments to the outpouring of support at local job fairs, Fort Worth’s spirit of solidarity shines through.

  • "Transformation, Jobs, and Community Spotlight in Fort Worth"
    2025/06/26
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Thursday, June 26, 2025.

    We begin with a major development deal that’s set to transform a sleepy part of our city. Fort Worth has just approved a one point seven billion dollar project, sweetened by one hundred twenty five million in city incentives, including eighty million in grants. This plan will bring new office space, housing, and retail to an area that’s been underused for years, promising a big boost to our local economy and more places for our community to live, work, and gather.

    Our business scene is buzzing, too. Embraer, the Brazilian aerospace company, has officially opened its new maintenance and repair facilities at Perot Field Alliance Airport, right here in Fort Worth. This marks the start of their expanded operations, with the company expecting to invest up to seventy million dollars and create around two hundred fifty new aviation jobs. Local leaders are celebrating this move as a strong signal that Fort Worth remains the heart of Texas aviation, attracting global companies and growing our job market.

    There’s more news out of City Hall this week. The City Council recently agreed to extend the Main Street pilot program for another two years, with more improvements and community input promised along the way. In another significant move, the council just held a tense vote on suspending the city’s Diversity and Inclusion department. The debate follows new federal orders and the risk of losing nearly two hundred seventy-seven million dollars in federal funding if the city fails to comply. We’ll keep you updated as this story develops.

    On the real estate front, that fresh development deal we mentioned earlier isn’t the only sign of growth—new residential and office projects around Alliance and east campus neighborhoods continue to attract attention, with city records showing a steady rise in new permits filed this month.

    Turning to public safety, police are investigating a tragic case this morning. A Fort Worth man has confessed to the killing of a missing 57-year-old flight attendant. The investigation continues as authorities search for the victim’s body. We encourage everyone to stay alert and report any information that might help.

    The weather today is classic North Texas: expect muggy conditions, a high near ninety-two, and a chance of scattered storms that could roll in by late afternoon. If you’re headed to any outdoor events or summer camps, keep an umbrella handy just in case.

    Looking ahead, there’s plenty happening in our community. Tonight, the Tarrant County College Board of Trustees meets downtown at six p.m. We have several summer concerts and art exhibits around Sundance Square this weekend, plus local youth baseball playoffs at Gateway Park. In schools, several Fort Worth ISD teams celebrated big wins at last week’s state track meets, with Paschal High especially standing out.

    And finally, a feel-good story. Hundreds of residents benefited from this month’s Continuing the Climb Job and Resource Fair, a partnership helping our neighbors find new opportunities and career support.
