Produktbeschreibung
Founded in 1857 as the fourth county seat of Denton County, the city of Denton is situated at the top of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex triangle. After the first trains from the Texas and Pacific Railroad and the Missouri, Kansas, and Texas Railway (the Katy) rolled into town in 1881, Denton developed from a frontier community into a vibrant city. Establishing itself as a center of education in 1890 with the founding of the Texas Normal College and Teacher Training Institute (now the University of North Texas), the creation of the Girls Industrial College (now Texas Womans University) in 1901 further enhanced this image. The citys 150-year history, forged by so many talented people, has provided a strong foundation for its growing economic environment. Today Dentons community spirit resonates through the energy of the citys many diverse events and its lively music scene.
