Fairmount-Southside Historic District Neighborhood in Fort Worth TX

Fairmount-Southside Historic District All You Need To Know

The Fairmount-Southside Historic District covers a whopping 340 acres in downtown Fort Worth. The local homeowner’s association says it is the largest historic district in the southwestern U.S. This streetcar era neighborhood received that designation from the Texas Historical Commission. As a historic district, there are strict rules that must be followed if you want to alter the exterior of a home. And residents generally live in homes built before World War 2, while many predate World War 1. Lipscomb Street and Chase Court are notable for the number of properties along them that are historic landmarks.

Jessamine Street is the southern edge of this neighborhood. Eighth Avenue is the western edge, while Hemphill Street marks the eastern edge. Interstate 35W is located several blocks to the east of Hemphill. Magnolia Avenue is the northern boundary. Rosedale Street is two blocks north of Magnolia. This historic neighborhood is two miles south of the modern downtown Fort Worth.

Daggett Middle School is located within the Fairmount-Southside neighborhood. EM Daggett Elementary school sits on the southern side of Jessamine Street, just outside of the formal boundaries. That’s officially in Ryan Place. Fairmount-Southside students are in easy commuting distance of Trimble Technical High School.

The JPS Hospital and associated medical complex is located on Main Street and Allen Avenue. This is a major area employer. However, it is not the only medical facility in the area. Baylor Scott and White All Saints Medical Center is located on the northwestern corner of the neighborhood. Cook Children’s Medical Center and the Medical City Fort Worth facility are also located here. You can find everything from the local Ronald McDonald House to the Cook Children’s Urgent Care facility here, and children with severe problems can be admitted to the pediatric emergency room at Cook Children’s. The Texas Rehabilitation Hospital of Fort Worth is located on 8th Avenue where it curves and then crosses Interstate 30.

As an older neighborhood, there is relatively little green space. Fairmount Park is located off Myrtle Street. The Fairmount Community Garden is located near it on the opposite side of Fifth Avenue.
