Grapevine: Historic Main Street, the Lake, and the Airport at the City's Edge
Grapevine is one of the oldest settlements in Tarrant County, founded in 1844 when General Sam Houston and other commissioners signed the Treaty of Bird's Fort with ten Native American nations at a site just southwest of present-day Main Street. The name came from the wild mustang grapes that grew along the prairie. The historic downtown strip along Main Street preserves buildings dating to the late 19th and early 20th centuries and functions as one of the most intact small-town commercial districts in the Metroplex.
The city positions itself as Texas wine country. Several tasting rooms operate along Main Street, and the annual GrapeFest in September is among the largest wine festivals in the Southwest. Urban wineries are supplied by grapes grown elsewhere in Texas, predominantly the High Plains around Lubbock, which produces the majority of commercial Texas wine grapes.
Grapevine Lake, a 7,380-acre reservoir completed in 1952 on Denton Creek, forms the northern border of the city. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers operates the lake and maintains multiple parks along the shoreline. The lake supplies water to Grapevine, Dallas, and other Metroplex municipalities under contractual arrangements.
DFW International Airport occupies a substantial portion of Grapevine's eastern territory. The airport property, the largest geographic airport in the United States by land area, covers 17,207 acres across portions of Grapevine, Euless, Coppell, Irving, and Fort Worth. Grapevine collects significant sales and hotel occupancy tax revenue from airport-area businesses.
