F. W. Woolworth Building, Neoclassical commercial building in Sundance Square, Fort Worth, United States.

The F. W. Woolworth Building stands three stories tall with limestone and concrete construction, featuring a decorative frieze along its classical facade.

Constructed in 1925 by architect Wiley G. Clarkson, this structure operated as a Woolworth department store until 1990, marking 65 years of retail history.

The building represents the commercial development of downtown Fort Worth during the early 20th century, when department stores transformed urban shopping.

Located at 501 Houston Street, the structure now houses multiple businesses including JoS. A. Bank Clothiers in the heart of downtown Fort Worth.

The building received National Register of Historic Places designation in 1994, despite initial plans for a ten-story structure that were reduced to three levels.
