History:
Named after Robert E. Lee’s hometown in Virginia, Arlington Texas began its modern history more than 150 years ago while Texas was still an independent republic and Arlington was a frontier fort. The coming of the railway brought new prosperity to Arlington, helping to expand the city and transforming it into a center for farming and cotton production. Agriculture was the mainstay of Arlington until 1954, when General Motors built an assembly plant, and development boomed in earnest.
