FORT WORTH, Texas – The Fort Worth Chamber has named Crescent Real Estate LLC as this year’s recipient of the Chairman’s Spirit of Enterprise Award.
Founded in Fort Worth more than 30 years ago and still headquartered here today, the firm is a real estate operating company and investment advisor with assets under management, development and investment capacity of more than $10 billion.
“Crescent has played a pivotal role in shaping the modern skyline and economic landscape of Fort Worth through high-profile developments that attract businesses, residents, and tourism,” Montgomery said. “By investing in large-scale mixed-use and commercial projects, the firm has helped drive job creation, increase property values, and strengthen the city’s position as a major economic hub.”
Crescent said Fort Worth has always been central to the firm’s identity and helped form the company it is today.
Christopher Goff, senior managing director and head of capital formation, said, “Receiving the Spirit of Enterprise Award is a meaningful affirmation of Crescent’s deep roots in Fort Worth. It reflects our long-standing commitment to investing responsibly in the city we call home and the collective efforts of our team to help shape places where our community can live, work and play while still contributing meaningfully to Fort Worth’s long-term vitality and prosperity.”
“Being rooted here creates a strong sense of stewardship — one reinforced by the active involvement of our leadership and team in the community — and guides how we listen, collaborate and design places that reflect Fort Worth’s character and values,” added Andrew Lombardi, senior managing director and chief financial officer. “With each development, we take deep pride in contributing to the city’s identity, not just its skyline.”
Goff and Lombardi will accept the award on behalf of Crescent during the program. The award will be presented by Rusty Reid, president and chief executive officer of Higginbotham, whose firm received the Spirit of Enterprise Award last year.
Awarded by the four most recent chairs of the Fort Worth Chamber, the Chairman’s Spirit of Enterprise Award was initiated in 1975 to recognize local companies that have made significant contributions to the advancement and prosperity of the city, as well as their commitment to the preservation of the American private enterprise system.
