T&P Station, Art Deco railway station and skyscraper in downtown Fort Worth, United States
T&P Station is a railway station and skyscraper with Art Deco design in downtown Fort Worth. The complex combines train operations on the ground floor with residential condominiums above, featuring marble floors, ornamental metal details, and coffered ceilings throughout.
Built in 1931 for the Texas and Pacific Railway, the station served multiple railroad companies for decades. Passenger rail operations ceased in 1967, but the building was preserved and adapted for new uses.
The station's name survives in the T&P Tavern, a bar converted from the historic ground-floor diner during the building's renovation. The Texas & Pacific Warehouse, one block west and built in the same Zigzag Moderne style, remains vacant despite developer interest.
T&P Station sits at 1600 Throckmorton Street on the south side of downtown Fort Worth, near the Convention Center, Water Gardens and Sundance Square. Free parking, unlike at nearby Fort Worth Central Station, is reached from West Vickery Boulevard. The station is the western terminus of the TRE commuter line; the T&P Tavern occupies the renovated ground-floor diner.
The building blends residential living with active rail operations under one roof, creating an unusual combination where trains operate below while residents live above. This mixed-use arrangement is rare in American cities.
