2012 Map of Grapevine

About this map

The waters of Grapevine Lake and the intricate drainage of Denton Creek define the northern landscape of this region, which serves as a critical junction for North Texas transit and history. The map highlights the preservation of the area's early character through the Grapevine Original Town Residential Historic District and the Grapevine Original Commercial Historic District, providing a clear look at the core of the community before the massive expansion of the modern era. To the south, the vast footprint of the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport dominates the terrain, illustrating the dramatic shift from the rural roots found at Minters Chapel and the Parker Memorial Cem to a global transportation hub. The convergence of commercial centers like Grapevine Mills and educational institutions such as Devry University-Texas reflects the rapid suburban development and industrial growth characteristic of the early 21st century.
