Reporting here centers on permit activity, commercial and residential projects, public infrastructure, contractor and labor news, and job site safety. Coverage reaches across the city of Fort Worth and into the surrounding communities wherever a project or permit crosses the line. Residential and commercial building tend to rise and fall on different schedules, so the two are often reported separately. Labor availability and material costs are the two constraints that touch nearly every project in the area.
