2016 Map of Benbrook

About this map

Benbrook Lake dominates the southern landscape of this Tarrant County quadrangle, where the Clear Fork Trinity River is harnessed just south of the growing suburbs. The western edge of Fort Worth is shown in detail, documenting the suburban expansion into neighboring Benbrook and White Settlement. This 2016 survey captures the modern infrastructure of the region, including the Chisolm Trail Pkwy and the intricate junction of SW Loop 820. Despite the heavy residential development, local history remains visible at sites like Como Cem near Lake Como. The map also traces the smaller drainages that define the local topography, such as Marys Creek and Walnut Cr, providing a precise record of how the natural hydrology of North Texas has been integrated into a dense metropolitan environment.
