Hell's Half Acre
Address
Fort Worth, TX 76102
Details
Nothing in Fort Worth's history is quite as wild as "Hell's Half Acre," a rough and rowdy district filled with saloons, dance halls, gambling parlors, and bordellos. This area thrived in the late 1800s, when cowboys on the Chisholm Trail would stop by, kick up their heels, and patronize the "lonesome doves."
