“Midget Town” is a nickname for a unique, half-sized replica town built by a wealthy, eccentric Fort Worth family on their property at the base of Hidden Road, not Dallas.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
Location:
The structures, which included a church, schoolhouse, and general store, were located in Fort Worth, specifically at the base of Hidden Road.
Purpose:
The structures were built for the family’s children to play in, and they were half the size of normal structures, hence the nickname “Midget Town”.
Description:
The structures were intricate and detailed.
Demise:
The most recent owners reportedly tore down most of the structures in the past 10 or 15 years.
Not a “Midget” Village:
It’s important to note that there were no actual midgets living in the village, and the name is just a nickname for the half-sized structures.
Urban Legend:
Some people have visited the area and claim to have seen the structures, while others have heard about it as an urban legend.
Adoe would clown me for even making this post, but I know he’d appreciate it
He had a huge impact not only on me and the people around us but also on the graffiti culture in the SFV. He was someone I’ve always had a lot of respect for and considered a brother. For many of us, things will never be the same. You will be missed dearly, friend. It was an honor, Herman Morales.
