DAVID M. SCHWARZ ARCHITECTS, INC."Sited on the Will Roger’s Memorial Center campus in Fort Worth’s Cultural District, the new Dickies Arena will host the annual Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, providing additional seating and premium amenities compared to the existing facility.
The Dickies Arena’s facades incorporate Southwest Art Deco elements, chosen to relate the building to the 1930s era buildings on the Will Roger’s campus. The primary materials – brick and stone – are complimented with tile mosaics and metal grille work incorporating Fort Worth iconography around the building. The seating bowl is capped off with a cupola that is lit from within."
