The future of the past: The C. M. Davis “Aparthomes” in Fort Worth
By Kevin Buchanan / Pegasus News
In the 1930s, as the Great Depression brought on tough times for the city of Fort Worth, a concrete engineer named Charles M. Davis and his daughter Zoe became interested in transferring that concrete engineering knowledge to the creation of affordable, compact homes. They adapted that engineering work to the Streamline Moderne style and created a series of one-bedroom “Aparthomes” (apartment-homes) in the TCU/Berry Street area. The homes were sponsored by the Portland Cement Association.
Today, four of the C. M. Davis Aparthomes are still standing, and here’s a look at how they are today.

More Tarrant cities focus on saving trees
By Elizabeth Campbell / Star-Telegram.com
August 16, 2009
Imagine tree-lined streets and heavily wooded areas seemingly left untouched by development in a city experiencing an explosion of growth.
That is a vision Burleson leaders cling to as rooftops continue to pop up on the horizon and the extension of Southwest Parkway from Fort Worth promises even more.
It’s also why Burleson is considering adopting an ordinance designed to save trees and create green space. But unlike other municipalities, the city is taking an approach that its leaders hope will save its leafy canopies in huge swaths, not one piece of property at a time.

Dallas-Fort Worth home prices improving slightly
By Steve Brown / The Dallas Morning News
July 29, 2009
Home values in the Dallas area are showing modest improvements from a low point set in early 2009, according to the latest data released Tuesday.
But Dallas-area prices were still down 4.1 percent in May from a year ago in Standard & Poor's Case-Shiller Home Price Index report.
Some analysts are betting that the North Texas market will flatten out later this year after more than two years of steady declines in prices and sales.
