historic place
The Markeen Apartments, a historic place in Fort Worth, Texas, are located in Tarrant County. This complex, comprising two similar two-story brick buildings, was completed by early 1910. Contractor Charles W. Forbes built them on speculation, with James J. Parker overseeing construction. Designed in the Prairie School style, the apartments were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001 for their architectural significance. They represent early examples of apartment construction in Fort Worth. The Markeen Apartments offer insight into early 20th-century residential development in the city.
