Rivercrest is the location of Fort Worth’s grandest historic homes.
The Rivercrest neighborhood is a small section of estate homes built around The Rivercrest Country Club, established in 1911. The establishment of the U.S. Army’s Camp Bowie during World War I brought new development along Camp Bowie Boulevard, which extends from West 7th Street through today’s “Cultural District” and westward to Arlington Heights and Ridglea.
The Rivercrest development, which lies just north of Arlington Heights, is part of a more extensive, very affluent section of west Fort Worth, including the neighborhoods of Northcrest and Monticello. Less grand but no less lovely are the nearby neighborhoods of North Hi Mount & Crestwood, where executive homes were built in the 1920s and 1930s.
There are a number of historic homes within Rivercrest and the surrounding neighborhoods including a few grand houses dating as far back as 1893.
