Photograph of a building at 1540 North Main Street in Fort Worth, Texas. The brick building is two stories with stone arch tops in the middle section of the walls, over each window, door, and indention area. The front windows are barred, and there are awnings over every visible door. Concrete steps lead up to the entrance, and a stone boundary separates a small section of landscaping from the sidewalk and road in front of the building. A sign on the side of the building reads "BAIL BONDS..." as the building is being used as a jail in the photo.

Photograph of an Auto-Heinz located at 4620 Camp Bowie Boulevard in Fort Worth, Texas. The building used to be a Sinclair gas station, and is now a Dominoes. It is a white building with a large, covered, drive-through area. The sign for the building hangs off of the side of this covering. The roof has Spanish tile on it, and the windows of the building are barred. The sun is bright, creating a dramatic shadow underneath the covered area. A street sing that reads "Camp Bowie" stands very close to the camera.

Photograph of an entrance into Farrington Field at 1501 University Drive in Fort Worth, Texas. The Art Deco entrance has four decorative pillars holding up a section of wall that says "FARRINGTON FIELD" "FORT WORTH PUBLIC SCHOOL STADIUM." A star adorns the top of each of the striped pillars. On either side of the stadium name, another section of wall holds two carved pieces of art. On the left of the name, a football player is about to throw a ball to the right, and on the right side, a man with flowing hair also has a football in his hand, and appears to be running towards the left. The man in the left artwork has a full uniform on while the one on the right has only shorts and a t-shirt. Small windows in groups of three line the uppermost portion of the entrance. A sign just beyond the pillars advertises concessions. The bottom of the stairs of the stadium seats descends behind the entrance and the ground is concrete.

Photograph of the interior of the W.T. Waggoner building in Fort Worth, located on W. 8th Street. The ceiling is coffered with ornately carved bands outlining each section. A square column stands at each intersection of these bands. The polished marble floors have darker sections around the bases of these columns and the edges of the room. Short, half-walls create barriers between rooms, and decorative metal creates extra barriers on top of these half-walls. Each doorway in the photo is arched with a wooden arch as the doorframe. Each doorframe is freestanding, and not attached to a ceiling. There are large bowl pendant lights suspended from each coffered section of the ceiling. A clot is embedded in the railing of a walkway in the background of the picture.
