Fort Worth's Oakhurst Neighborhood (Images of America)

Fort Worth's Oakhurst Neighborhood (Images of America)

In 1924, civic leader and developer John P. King promoted Fort Worthâ€™s Oakhurst neighborhood as â€œcountry life for the city man.â€ He appealed to those who wanted space for artesian water, cool breezes, gardens in a hillside setting, and a utopian atmosphere for their children. Kingâ€•the creator of a confectionery company known for â€œKingâ€™s candies for American queensâ€â€•made a park-like neighborhood in a part of Riverside just a few miles from downtown Fort Worth. Thoughtful landscape design and charming architecture are hallmarks of this all-American neighborhood, beloved for its small-town, community feel well into its 90th year.
