Fleetwood TX History

The west Houston/Memorial area was mostly covered with cattle ranches and sawmills, while a few homes dotted the landscape.

The city's westward expansion and the completion of Interstate 10 (I-10) generated growth in the area. Developers bought large tracts of land and built subdivisions. They also acquired communities along the banks of Buffalo Bayou.

Fleetwood was built sometime during the early 1970s. The area has remained a popular neighborhood in the Energy Corridor.

In the same period, Shell Oil Company and Conoco moved operations along I-10. This sparked growth and attracted other oil and gas companies to build campuses and offices in the area. Today, over 80,000 work in the Energy District.
