John Goff is Fort Worth Inc.'s 2024 Person of the Year, selected from a pool of dynamic personalities and influential figures that dot the city’s landscape.
They all appear in the magazine’s The 400, a collection of the city’s most influential leaders.
Goff’s selection stands as a testament to his significant contributions to the city's growth and prosperity.
As the founder and chairman of Crescent Real Estate, Goff's visionary leadership is helping mold Fort Worth's future. The Crescent development west of downtown, which opened in the fall, is quickly becoming an iconic symbol of the city’s progress. Just a few miles east, Texas A&M’s Tier 1 research campus, whose development he spearheaded, is emerging from the ground of the former Hell’s Half Acre. It might one day serve as a monument to his many philanthropic pursuits across the city.
Goff embodies the spirit of innovation and generosity that defines Fort Worth.
The upcoming 400 and Person of the Year Cocktail Reception on May 23 at The Fort Worth Club offers an opportunity for the community to celebrate his achievements and honor his contributions.
In honoring John Goff, Fort Worth recognizes not only his business accomplishments but also his role as a catalyst for positive change. His influence transcends industry, leaving an enduring impact on the city and its residents.
The 400 and Person of the Year Cocktail Reception is open to the public and will take place on May 23 from 5:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m. at The Fort Worth Club. Click here to purchase tickets.
