Butler Place opened in 1940 to provide quality housing to Fort Worth residents in need and became a cherished home to more than 400 families. However, cut off from the rest of the city, Butler Place was also an island that separated its residents from jobs and opportunity. After 80 years, Butler Place public housing community closed for good in 2020. This short documentary celebrates fond memories of Butler Place and the modern policies that allow former residents to choose affordable homes across Fort Worth with better access to jobs and good schools.
