The quality of life that has made Cowtown one of the nation’s most livable cities is gaining national attention once again.

Fort Worth was one of 26 cities and communities from across the U.S. named Wednesday as a finalist in the 2011 All-America City Award competition. Sponsored by the National Civic League, the award has recognized cities for civic engagement since 1949 and has helped past recipients bring new grant funds and employers.

Fort Worth won the All-America City Award in 1964 and again in 1993
