1960 Map of Argyle

About this map

The Texas and Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary spine for this northern Texas landscape, connecting the growing settlements of Roanoke and Argyle. Along the eastern edge of the survey, the rising waters of the Grapevine Reservoir define the topography, reaching into the southern reaches of the quadrangle via Denton Creek and Marshall Branch. The map captures a moment of transition where traditional agrarian landmarks, such as Prairie Mound Ch and the Double Oak Sch, coexist with industrial activity near the reservoir.
