Fort Worth Water Gardens

The Water Gardens in Fort Worth are impressive. Built in 1974 the area has three different water features and covers over 4 acres. This part of Fort Worth was once called Hell's Half Acre a wild west part of town in the late 1800s. Although anchored by St. Patrick's Cathedral it was a rowdy area consisting mostly of saloons and brothels which were said to have been visited by Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and many other infamous characters. If some of the views look familiar, you may have seen them in the film Logan's Run.
