Seven years ago today, Ariat Arena (formerly Dickies Arena) opened its doors in Fort Worth.

Since then, it’s become a destination for concerts, sporting events, the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, and the community moments that bring the city together.

This construction footage from DroneDeploy shows what it took to get there: more than 4 million labor hours, thousands of craftspeople and specialty trades working in sync, and design inspired by the neighboring Will Rogers Memorial Center. The team finished substantial construction one month ahead of the original schedule.

A landmark like this takes extraordinary coordination, expertise, and collaboration. We’re proud to have worked alongside Austin Commercial, HKS, dmsarchitects, and the many trade partners and craftspeople who made it possible.

Happy anniversary, Ariat Arena! Here’s to many more years of incredible events in Fort Worth.

$233,621 raised for the Beck Foundation! Music, golf, and giving back — that's what Guitars & Pars is all about!

Last week, our Austin team brought together clients, industry partners, and friends for our annual Guitars & Pars concert and golf tournament, raising funds to benefit Dell Children's Medical Center's Music Therapy Program and Mobile Loaves & Fishes' Community First! Village.

From a night of live music with Aaron Watson to a day on the course at The Hills Country Club, this year's event was a great example of what we can accomplish when our industry comes together to support the communities where we live and work.

We couldn't make it happen without our generous sponsors! Their contributions and continued support are what make Guitars & Pars possible, and we're proud to partner with so many organizations that share our commitment to giving back.

Since campus life doesn't stop, we built around it.

At University of Colorado Boulder's University Memorial Center, we completed a major renovation while 90% of the building remained occupied, keeping this important campus hub open and serving students.

Completed for the fall semester, the UMC has welcomed the Buffs back with a safer, healthier environment.

There’s a phoenix at our Dallas office with quite a story behind it.

At 3:26 a.m. on December 19, 1964 — six days before Christmas — a fire broke out at the Neiman Marcus flagship in downtown Dallas.

While the building was still burning, Stanley Marcus called Henry C. Beck Jr. The firm was already building Neiman Marcus’ new NorthPark store, so the team moved quickly.

Within 30 minutes, Beck was on site. By noon, they were raising scaffolding. By 5 p.m., a seven-story hoist was in place to begin removing debris.

Just 27 days later, the first three floors reopened.

Nearly a year after the fire, Neiman Marcus presented Henry C. Beck with a Steuben glass phoenix. The inscription reads:
“Through the tireless efforts of Henry C. Beck Company, our Phoenix has risen with great speed and unmatched beauty.”

That phoenix still sits in our Dallas office today.

As Neiman Marcus closes its downtown store today, we’re looking back at an extraordinary chapter in Dallas history, and one we’re honored to share.
