Hall Tandy Triangle Park

Originally known as Polytechnic Park, the Northern Texas Traction Company donated this .32-acre triangular piece of land to the city for park purposes in 1922, the same year that the Polytechnic community was annexed into the city limits of Fort Worth. Bounded by Nashville, Thrall, and Avenue F (now Rosedale Street), it was described in a newspaper article from 1926 as a small but beautiful site that had been improved by the placement of gutters around it and the planting of trees and shrubs. Its acquisition was illustrative of the park department’s efforts to bring small neighborhood parks to densely developed parts of the city. Area residents requested that the park be called Polytechnic Park as an effort to preserve the community’s name after it had been annexed into the city. Today, it is mostly used as an ornamental park.
