2019 Map of Irving

About this map

Irving and the surrounding suburban sprawl of Dallas and Grand Prairie define this late 2010s landscape. The complex intersection of the West Fork Trinity River and Elm Fork Trinity River creates a corridor of natural drainage and wetlands, including Bear Slough and the wide Vilbig Lakes. Historic footprints are preserved in small pockets like Sowers and the residential grid of Arcadia Park near Chalk Hill. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several notable burial sites, such as Sowers Cem, Smith Cem, and the Dallas City Cem. The infrastructure of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex is on full display, with major thoroughfares like W Airport Fwy and W Irving Blvd cutting through the densely developed neighborhoods and industrial zones near Oldham.
