As Hunden Partners marks 20 years of shaping destination real estate, Fort Worth stands out as one of the most enduring and impactful examples of our work.

Prior to forming Hunden Partners, Rob Hunden began advising the City in 2001 on the feasibility, financing, and development of what became the highly successful Omni Fort Worth convention headquarters hotel. After forming Hunden Partners in 2006, we advised the developers of the Fort Worth Stockyards on a multi-year expansion that doubled visitation to DFW’s most visited attraction, increased visitor dwell time, and generated exponential growth in economic impact. In 2013, Hunden resumed work related to Dickies Arena, including funding strategy and modeling of the Project Finance Zone (PFZ) mechanism that was key to funding the arena, while at the same time studying the need for expansion of the Fort Worth Convention Center (FWCC) and addition/expansion of headquarters hotel options.
