Fort Worth Central Real Estate > Fort Worth Central Community Info

Established as a fort named after General Worth in the Mexican-American War, Fort Worth Central grew into a bustling town when it became a stop along the legendary Chisholm Trail. The dusty path hosted millions of cattle driven north to market. Fort Worth Central became the center of the cattle drives, and later, the ranching industry. Then when oil gushed, Fort Worth Central was at the center of it all.
