Modern Southlake: How we got here
The society’s 2025 Town Hall Exhibit opens Mon., July 14 and runs until Sat., Aug. 23.
“Modern Southlake: How we got here” explores Southlake’s beginnings in 1956 to today with photographs, maps and stories of the people who built our community. (In this 1966 photo, Southlake Mayor Paul Schell stands in front of the town’s new water system which included a well house and storage tank. The system was built with a loan guaranteed by the Farmers Home Administration and served both businesses and homes.)
