Moss Begins Construction on Phase I of the $1.7 Billion Westside Village Mixed-Use District in Fort Worth
The 37-acre district will deliver new office, residential, retail, hospitality, and public spaces
Fort Worth, Texas – Moss, a top-ranked national construction management firm, announced today that it has acquired Tampa-based Ellison Construction. The acquisition brings together two highly regarded builders with deep roots in Florida and a shared passion for delivering transformative projects that shape cities, serve communities, and stand the test of time.
Moss Construction, a nationally recognized construction firm, has begun construction on Phase I of Westside Village, a $1.7 billion, 37-acre master-planned mixed-use district west of downtown Fort Worth.
Phase I includes a 308-unit luxury multifamily community and a 100,000-square-foot Class AA office building with premier workspace, ground-floor retail, two restaurant concepts, a private social club, and a below-grade jazz club. The buildings are connected by a shared underground parking garage designed to support a walkable, integrated environment.
Moss was selected as general contractor for Phase I based on its combined expertise in commercial construction and wood-frame multifamily, enabling an integrated approach to delivering the district’s first phase.
“Phase I of Westside Village brings together multifamily and office construction on a shared site, requiring tight coordination and disciplined execution,” said Josh Carson, vice president at Moss Construction. “Our team is excited to move into construction and deliver the first phase of a long-term mixed-use district for Fort Worth.”
Westside Village is being developed by FW Westside RE Investors LLC, a partnership between Keystone Group, LP and Larkspur Capital LP. At full build-out, the district will deliver approximately 880,000 square feet of Class AA office space, 238,000 square feet of retail, 1,785 residential units, and a luxury boutique hotel.
“Breaking ground on the first phase of Westside Village marks a major milestone in advancing this long-term vision,” said Schafer Smartt, vice president of development at Larkspur Capital. “From the outset, the district is designed to integrate office, residential, retail, hospitality and public spaces into a walkable, connected environment that delivers lasting value for Fort Worth.”
The Phase I office building was designed by Michael Hsu Office of Architecture, with Corgan serving as architect of record. Corgan is also leading design for the multifamily building, which will include residential units, live-work spaces, and ground-floor retail. GGN, a landscape architecture firm recognized for highly activated urban environments, is leading the design of the district’s public spaces.
