TCU is moving forward with key implementation elements of the Campus Master Plan, with major site preparation and construction work scheduled in the coming weeks. These improvements, concentrated around the intersection of West Berry St. and Greene Ave., will support future development and reflect the university’s commitment to long-term student-centered growth as identified in the university's strategic plan, LEAD ON: Values in Action.

As part of this work, three buildings fronting Greene Ave. — previously home to the TCU Costume shop and storage, a TCU Art Gallery and the City of Fort Worth Police Department storefront — have been vacated and relocated as part of this project. These building are scheduled to be demolished on April 7, 2025 and the associated parking lot, located at the corner of Berry St. and Greene Ave. will be permanently closed.

In addition to the building demolitions, several phased closures and traffic adjustments will occur over the spring and summer as pictured below.

  • Late April 2025: Construction site fencing will be installed, closing Cockrell Ave. and the parking areas within the designated red-line zone pictured. Essentially the parking lots between Cockrell Ave. and Green Ave. as well as the larger campus store parking lot will be closed. This area will remain closed until the project is complete in July 2027.
  • May 2025: A lane closure on Greene Ave. will begin allowing for only north-bound traffic and is expected to continue through July 2025.
  • July 2025: A lane closure on Bowie St. will begin allowing for only west-bound traffic and is expected to continue through August 2025.
  • July 2025: A west-bound lane closure on Berry St. will begin and is projected to continue through early September 2025, prior to the first home football game.

These closures are essential to ensure the safety of the campus community and the timely progression of the project. TCU is working closely with city officials, contractors and internal stakeholders to minimize disruption and ensure clear, timely communication.

To accommodate parking shifts during the various stages of construction over the next few years, TCU will reallocate and relocate existing parking, enhance campus shuttle service, significantly limit student parking access and increase the sharing of parking resources across campus.

The first phase of parking changes will begin April 20,2025 with minimal impact to surrounding neighborhoods. A second, broader phase will follow in August 2025.

Parking update plans are being finalized and will be shared as specifics are confirmed. We encourage students, faculty and staff to plan ahead and watch for updates, as parking adjustments may affect commuting patterns and event access.
