— a note from the studio

“Sundance Square is a thirty-five-block stretch of downtown Fort Worth that the Bass family began assembling in the 1980s and named for the outlaw who once hid here. The plaza at its centre opened in 2013, all warm brick, red-sandstone fountains, and yellow canopies that throw a soft light at dusk. The Bass Performance Hall stands a block north, its two limestone angels lifting horns above the corner.

— about Sundance Square Fort Worth

The place, in three passes.

A little of what's known, in case you fall down the rabbit hole — or want to go see it yourself.

— the place

Sundance Square is a thirty-five-block district at the centre of downtown Fort Worth, bounded roughly by the Tarrant County Courthouse to the north and the convention centre to the south. Sid and Ed Bass began assembling and restoring its nineteenth-century brick buildings in the early 1980s. The central plaza, designed by Washington architect David Schwarz, opened in November 2013 on what had been a surface parking lot. The name comes from Harry Longabaugh, the Sundance Kid, who passed through the city's Hell's Half Acre in 1900 with the rest of the Wild Bunch.

— informed by Wikipedia, Sundance Square

— the stone

The plaza's signature element is a pair of fountains cut from red Texas sandstone, set against the warm brick of the restored facades that frame the square. The yellow shade canopies overhead are deployed during summer and pulled back in cooler months. A block north, the Bass Performance Hall carries two forty-eight-foot limestone angels by Hungarian sculptor Marton Varo, lifting trumpets above the building's corner. They are among the largest freestanding angel sculptures of their kind in the United States.

— informed by Bass Performance Hall

— the visit

The plaza is open and free at all hours, with regular live music on summer evenings and a holiday ice rink set up each November. Restaurants and bars ring the perimeter; valet and several public garages serve the district. The Bass Performance Hall, home to the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra and Texas Ballet Theater, sits one block north on Fourth Street. The Sid Richardson Museum on Main Street, free to enter, holds one of the country's finest collections of Frederic Remington and Charles Russell paintings.

— common questions

What people ask.

A few questions we get about Sundance Square Fort Worth — and about bringing the piece home.

— about the place

Harry Longabaugh, the outlaw known as the Sundance Kid, who passed through Fort Worth's Hell's Half Acre in 1900 with the rest of the Wild Bunch. The Bass family chose the name when assembling the district in the 1980s.

November 2013. The plaza was designed by Washington architect David Schwarz and built on the site of a former surface parking lot. The two red-sandstone fountains and yellow shade canopies became the district's visual signature.

The district covers roughly thirty-five blocks of downtown Fort Worth, bounded by the Tarrant County Courthouse to the north and the convention centre to the south, and anchored by the plaza at Third and Main.

Hungarian sculptor Marton Varo carved the two forty-eight-foot limestone angels lifting trumpets above the building's corner. They are among the largest freestanding angel sculptures in the United States.

No. The Fort Worth Stockyards are about three miles north of downtown along North Main Street. Sundance Square is the restored nineteenth-century commercial core of the city itself, anchored by its central plaza.

— about the piece in your home

It has been, for many. The plaza is the everyday meeting place of downtown, the spot for courthouse walks and concert nights, and a tile reads as the city rather than a single landmark. A Small or Medium suits an office wall.

The warm brick reds and ochre canopy tones of this piece carry well in Texan-traditional, Maximalist, and Western-modern rooms. Set against pale plaster or whitewashed brick the colour holds its own without crowding the room.

A single Large works above a console or loveseat. Above a full sofa a 4-tile Mural holds the wall; a 9-tile Mural is the right scale above a sectional or a long credenza.

Yes. Order the Dura Satin or Matte finish for backsplashes, shower walls, and any vertical install where glossy would catch glare. Colour and durability are the same across all three finishes.

A microfibre cloth and warm water. No abrasive pads, no ammonia-based cleaners. The colour lives in the ceramic surface and will not wear off; the thin glossy top can dull under harsh scrub.

Yes. Every WenderVista piece is curated and finished in our Knoxville studio. The visual language is our own and is not licensed from any outside artist or stock library.
