  • Wyatt Cephas Hedrick: Builder of Cities
    WYATT CEPHAS HEDRICK: BUILDER OF CITIES Deborah M. Liles, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2008 APPROVED: Richard B. McCaslin, Major Professor Randolph B. Campbell, Minor Professor F. Todd Smith, Committee Member Adrian Lewis, Chair of the Department of History Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Liles, Deborah M. Wyatt Cephas Hedrick: Builder of Cities. Master of Arts (History), May, 2008, 151 pp., references, 118 titles. Wyatt Cephas Hedrick, builder and architect, was born in Virginia in 1888 and came to Texas in 1913. At his death in 1964, Hedrick’s companies had managed construction projects worth more than $1.3 billion. Hedrick’s architectural business designed and built edifices of all kinds, including educational facilities, hotels, military bases, railroad terminals, courthouses, and road systems. His companies built all over the United States, and in some foreign countries, but primarily in Texas. The purpose of Hedrick’s structures and their architectural styles changed to accommodate historical events. This can be seen by examining many of the commissions he received during the 1920s and 1930s. Hedrick had a unique opportunity to participate in years of great change and development in Texas, and he played a vital role in the history of those times. This thesis examines the career of Wyatt C. Hedrick from his beginnings in Virginia through his years in Texas, closing in 1940. As a builder, he played a major role in changing the skylines of Texas cities, especially Fort Worth. Copyright 2008 by Deborah M.
