Also known as: GSMC

Gendy Street Management Corp. is a Fort Worth-based nonprofit management entity formed to assume operation of the city-owned Will Rogers Memorial Center under an agreement with the City of Fort Worth. It was created as a joint venture of organizations tied to the Will Rogers campus, including the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, Event Facilities Fort Worth, and Trail Drive Management Corp., the nonprofit operator of Dickies Arena. The arrangement is intended to reduce the city's operating costs at the historic complex and address a backlog of capital improvement needs, with existing city employees at the venue given the option to transfer to the new entity.
