KDFW breaks ground on new station
Fox’s KDFW in Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas, has broken ground on its new building.
The station, which announced plans to move to the suburb of Irving, Texas, in August 2024, broke ground on its new broadcast facility Jan. 14, 2025.
The new building is expected to be 60,000 square feet over two stories and will include a secure inner courtyard for employees, a feature meant to support staff wellness.
The courtyard will also double as an outdoor broadcasting space, with the entire building labeled as “camera ready” by Corgan, the building’s architect.
Corgan incorporated large gathering spaces throughout to help encourage collaboration and community, including a showpiece stairway connecting the two floors that blends into a bank of informal seating, according to renders posted by the firm, though final design elements could change as construction progresses.
This isn’t Corgan’s first broadcast facility project in the Dallas area; the team also created the KXAS broadcast facility as well as work for public broadcaster KERA in northern Texas along with a variety of mixed-use, medical, hospitality and other commercial projects across the country.
