FW Westside RE Investors, LLC — a partnership between Keystone Group, L.P. and Larkspur Capital LP — has selected DBA Commercial Real Estate to lead leasing efforts for The Shed, the first food, beverage, and entertainment component within the transformative Westside Village development in Near Westside Fort Worth.
Envisioned as a vibrant hub for gathering and activity, The Shed represents a major step forward in the creation of one of the city’s most anticipated new districts.
“The Shed is one of the few buildings in Westside Village with architectural character, which is why we’re reusing it instead of building new,” said Schafer Smartt, vice president of Larkspur Capital, in a statement. “Preserving it adds authenticity that new construction can’t match and will help anchor the district’s identity as it grows.”
Located at 2800 Cullen Street, The Shed will occupy a 3.67-acre site and feature 19,099 square feet of indoor conditioned space, a 23,453-square-foot covered patio, and more than 165 surface parking spaces. In a dense urban environment, this combination of size, accessibility, and flexibility makes The Shed a rare opportunity for a high-traffic tenant or destination entertainment concept.
Leasing will be led by Austin Schenkel and Emmy Kate Barr of DBA Commercial Real Estate. Line Design, an adaptive reuse specialist, serves as design architect, creating a framework that allows for future tenant-driven customization, according to a press release.
“The Shed offers operators the opportunity to be among the first to establish a presence in Westside Village,” said Schenkel. “With its expansive layout, distinctive character, and integration into the larger development, it’s well positioned to attract concepts that want to grow alongside the project and the surrounding area.”
