📰 BRIEF

Eagle Mountain Dam (1932) transformed Azle from inland farm town to lake community

Eagle Mountain Dam completed in 1932 created the ~8,694-acre Eagle Mountain Lake — reshaping Azle from a strictly inland farming town into a lake-recreation community. The city straddles Tarrant + Parker counties today. Source: Wikipedia.
