About this map

Mountain Creek Lake dominates this mid-1990s landscape, serving as a focal point for heavy industry and suburban expansion southwest of Dallas. The shoreline is heavily utilized, featuring the Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant and the Mountain Creek Power Plant. The era's development is evidenced by the growing residential footprints of Duncanville and De Soto, alongside large-scale commercial hubs like the Southwest Center Mall.

Significant acreage is dedicated to institutional and recreational use, including the Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery and youth organization grounds such as Camp Whispering Cedars (Girl Scouts of America) and Camp Wisdom (Boy Scouts of America). Local history is preserved at Armstrong Historical Park and several small burial grounds like Trees Cem and Fivemile Cem, which provide touchstones for genealogists tracing early families in these established communities.
