## Resource

Fort Worth just leveled up its pickleball game with the grand opening of Pickle City — a 35,000-square-foot hub featuring 16 courts, dining, and fitness, fueled by dad Steve McKeever’s passion and run by his daughter Hannah. The name change from City Pickle to Pickle City? A friendly nod to a New York club’s trademark. As pickleball fever drives new ventures like Chicken N Pickle, investors are flocking to active social spaces. Meanwhile, a landmark Magnolia Avenue mixed-use building sold quietly, preserving its retail, coffee, and apartment vibe. But change is coming: Leaves Bakery & Books and JuJu Knits are closing, Hotel Revel is up for sale, and energy firm Valor just closed a big Series B to expand its AI platform and acquisitions.
