The building § 01
The Tower is a named condominium building in Downtown FW, Fort Worth. It is a residential conversion (conv. 2005), which places reserve health and building-systems history at the center of due diligence. The Tarrant Appraisal District 2026 roll carries 288 residential unit accounts here (138 in Tower Residential Condo I and 150 in Tower Residential II Condo). The building's own website lists 298 units.
Fort Worth's former bank tower (built 1972 per the Tarrant Appraisal District 2026 roll; the building cites 1974), wrecked by the 2000 tornado and reborn in 2005 as the city's first high-rise condominium — 288 residential accounts on the 2026 county roll, still the market's anchor.
