from the City of Fort Worth
“Say howdy to new welcoming gateway artwork that greets drivers as they approach downtown Fort Worth from westbound State Highway 121.
The long-anticipated artwork created by the artist and landscape architect team of Etty Horowitz and Kevin Sloan arrived in Fort Worth last week. The artwork features 10-foot-high Cor-Ten steel letters mounted on low concrete pedestals that line up to spell out FORT WORTH as drivers approach.
The artwork will be underplanted in native Texas wildflowers and grasses for color and texture through much of the year, giving the area around the concrete footings the look and feel of a native Texas prairie. The letters will be illuminated at night.”
