Site enhancements at the former Pier 1 headquarters building, 100 Energy Way, will include a new City Council Chamber facility, which will be home to future Council meetings and a number of boards and commissions.
As part of a goal to transform the way city services are delivered in Fort Worth, the City purchased the former Pier 1 building, with the goal of bringing 22 departments from 14 buildings into the site. The site will include a new one-stop shop for resident-facing services, including development and permitting activities, water customer service and more.
The existing building is undergoing changes to support a welcoming and functional space for municipal government.
Project completion is scheduled for the first quarter of 2024.
