Business Description from the Web

The anchor of Fort Worth's celebrated Cultural District, Louis Kahn's exquisitely proportioned 1972 building is on most short lists of the 20th century's greatest architectural achievements. A series of travertine-clad barrel vaults bathed in natural light, this sublime modern classic would be worth a visit empty.

It is far for me, personally, since I live about 45 minutes away from fort worth, otherwise I would visit there more often.

This is a place that is neat to visit. They have a restaurant there and some very nice exhibits to view. I have gone here for a class I was writing a paper for and now that I have been there I wish I would have been visiting there all along. I will return to see the special exhibits.
