    Ripley Arnold Place
    400-800 W Belknap St
    1948-2003
    This public housing development constructed in the 1940's and named for the founder of Fort Worth, sits very close to the original town site. It was demolished to construct the corporate campus for RadioShack, which later became the Tarrant County College Trinity River Campus. These two story, red brick apartment buildings were arranged with the fronts of the apartments facing the streets and the rears facing courtyards and playgrounds. Many old oak and pecan trees are present throughout the site and as many as possible will be preserved.

    😆 LOL, I see Chambers Street, IM Terrell, the hill I used to slide down on a 📦. I was only 7 yrs old then. Our parents made ends meet and went with the punches, had to endure many obstacles but we made it out. Only the STRONG survives. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

      You have no clue what you’re talking about. By far, America is the best country for all races. It’s why people do anything they can to come here. People make choices that affect their lives and blame others for their circumstances. There are a lot successful minorities here. If we can be successful, anyone can. Take education seriously. Don’t have kids until you’re married. You won’t be poor. Do the opposite, then you’re living off the government and will never get out. Choices.

      @@petradichavich you can ask them. They made it just fine too. As far as Hispanics, you can ask me. Those of us who work hard, get rewarded. Those of my family that don’t, complain about what they don’t have and steal from taxpayers. This country owes me nothing except to stay out of my way. Even those who live off the government, have more than enough and live like kings compared to the poor in other countries. Like I said, you have no clue what you’re talking about.

    These should have never been built, God is against joined dwellings for a reason, there is always strife & crime when people that live that close together.
