I’ve heard horror stories of people buying buildings that were thousands of square feet smaller than what they were reported as being! Also, I’ve heard stories where properties required a lot more work on them than the seller was representing.

We will have our work cut out for us with this property, no doubt about it. We will review tomorrow the results of our first two bids on the rehab work from the contractors. We are eagerly waiting to see the numbers and go through with a fine tooth comb each and every line item.

Report From Star Telegram.
Bill Miller, 817-390-7684

FORT WORTH — A truck driver was taken to the hospital and traffic was delayed when a tractor-trailer wrecked Friday morning on Interstate 35W in north Fort Worth.

Police said the wreck was reported 10:45 a.m. at Western Center Boulevard, police said.

The southbound rig, loaded with building supplies, slid into a retaining wall and the cab went over the side, said Fort Worth Police Sgt. Mark Allen.

Other motorists, Allen added, stopped and helped the driver climb out of the dangling wreckage.

He was able to walk and speak, but he appeared to be unsteady so he was taken by ambulance to John Peter Smith Hospital to be evaluated, Allen said.

Meanwhile, he added, accident investigators were trying to figure out what caused the wreck. “For some reason or another, he locked his brakes up,” Allen said. “Some witnesses said another vehicle might have pulled in front of him.”

The tractor-trailer skidding across two, maybe three lanes of traffic before going over the wall, Allen said.

He noted that the rig had just been refueled, so crews were busy Friday afternoon cleaning spilled fuel at the scene of the wreck.

Traffic was allowed to continue in the southbound lanes, but debris from the wreck blocked the exit ramp to Western Center Boulevard, which delayed traffic until it was cleared, Allen said.

Vice President Dick Cheney In Dallas

Vice President Dick Cheney is in Dallas today as part of a 2-day trip to Texas. Fort Worth resident Barbara Newton (Short Sale Realtor) was on a list of a few invited gusts who looked on as the vice president and Mrs. Cheney arrived at Love Field this morning.
Vice President Cheney will stay overnight in Dallas, and then heads back to Love Field in the morning to take off for a stop at Fort Hood where he’ll rally the troops. Then, Cheney heads to Midland for a reception for Senator John Cornyn.
Officers escorting Cheney’s motorcade wore black tape over their badges in honor of fellow officer Victor Lozada.
Lozada was killed Friday while escorting Senator Hillary Clinton to a campaign rally.

Richard Bruce “Dick” Cheney[1] (born January 30, 1941), is the forty-sixth and current Vice President of the United States. As Vice-President, Cheney is also the President of the United States Senate.

Cheney was born in Lincoln, Nebraska but soon relocated to Casper, Wyoming where he grew up. He began his political career as an intern for Congressman William A. Steiger, eventually working his way into the White House during the Ford administration where he served as White House Chief of Staff. In 1978, Cheney was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Wyoming; he was reelected five times, eventually becoming House Minority Whip. Cheney was selected to be the Secretary of Defense during the presidency of George H.W. Bush, a position he held for all but two months of Bush’s term. During this time, Cheney oversaw the 1991 Operation Desert Storm, among other actions.

Out of office during the Clinton presidency, Cheney was Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Halliburton Company from 1995 to 2000.

Cheney joined the presidential campaign of George W. Bush in 2000, who selected him as his running mate. As Vice President, Cheney remains a very public and controversial figure. He continues to assert that the Iraq War and War on Terror must be won by the United States, and many of his other policy recommendations initially drew strong approval, but in his second-term disapproval of his performance has outweighed approval, as measured by national polls. Cheney is generally acknowledged to be one of the most powerful and influential Vice Presidents in U.S. history!

Borrowed on White House.gov
Vice President Richard B. Cheney has had a distinguished career as a businessman and public servant, serving four Presidents and as an elected official. Throughout his service, Mr. Cheney served with duty, honor, and unwavering leadership, gaining him the respect of the American people during trying military times.

Mr. Cheney was born in Lincoln, Nebraska, on January 30, 1941 and grew up in Casper, Wyoming. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s of arts degrees from the University of Wyoming. His career in public service began in 1969 when he joined the Nixon Administration, serving in a number of positions at the Cost of Living Council, at the Office of Economic Opportunity, and within the White House.

When Gerald Ford assumed the Presidency in August 1974, Mr. Cheney served on the transition team and later as Deputy Assistant to the President. In November 1975, he was named Assistant to the President and White House Chief of Staff, a position he held throughout the remainder of the Ford Administration.

After he returned to his home state of Wyoming in 1977, Mr. Cheney was elected to serve as the state’s sole Congressman in the U.S. House of Representatives. He was re-elected five times and elected by his colleagues to serve as Chairman of the Republican Policy Committee from 1981 to 1987. He was elected Chairman of the House Republican Conference in 1987 and elected House Minority Whip in 1988. During his tenure in the House, Mr. Cheney earned a reputation as a man of knowledge, character, and accessibility.

First time home buyers have been entering the market, inspired by low interest rates and affordable housing. This trend is allowing owners of smaller properties to purchase larger homes, which fuels an ongoing residential upgrade spiral. Like “musical chairs”, people are changing places while still leaving a few empty ones available. Add to this the new homes from the builders along with steady population growth and low cost purchase money, and you have the formula for a booming real estate market that’s expected to continue well into next year.

This skyscraper is significant not for what it is, but for what it almost wasn’t. It was scheduled to be demolished in the summer of 2001, but managed to be spared from the wrecking ball — just barely.

It was badly damaged when Fort Worth took a direct hit from a tornado March 28, 2000. The twister destroyed several nearby buildings and heavily damaged others. It was eventually closed to the public because it was too dangerous. The building was sold and the new owners hired a New York company called Dismantlement and Environmental Management to level the building. Most of the windows were blown out and replaced by plywood as the tower awaited its demise.

A number of superlatives were attached to this event: It was going to be the fifth tallest building in the world to be demolished. It was going to be the tallest structure in North America to be demolished. It was going to be the tallest building in Texas to be demolished. The city has embraced the blast as a cause for celebration. Local merchants have even created an “Implosion 2001″ festival to capitalize on the event. While it is easy to criticize these people for trying to make money off a tragedy, they could also be lauded for helping the city move forward at a time when downtown Fort Worth was in the middle of a rebirth tha transformed many of its abandoned spaces into a vital thriving community.

Fortunately for the building it, too, was swept up in the rebirth of downtown Fort Worth. Developers decided to repair the tower and turn it into living space known simply as “The Tower.”The Fort Worth real estate market currently offers buyers and sellers a great opportunity to easily move-up to larger homes or to become a first-time homeowner.
