1960 Map of Argyle
USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
Grapevine Reservoir dominates the southeastern corner of this 1960 landscape, revealing the early shoreline and points like Bold Point and Rocky Point shortly after the reservoir’s creation. The Texas and Pacific railroad bisects the terrain, connecting the established communities of Argyle and Roanoke. This era shows a rural landscape in transition, where agricultural lands are dotted with local landmarks such as Shiloh Ch and Double Oak Sch. The presence of numerous quarries, a Strip Mine, and the Old Railroad Grade indicates the area's industrial activity and changing transportation infrastructure. Smaller settlements like Bartonville, Double Oak, and Smoots serve as vital local hubs amidst a network of creek branches, including Elizabeth Creek and Denton Creek, which feed into the primary basin.
