Suburb Sunday Fun Fact: Rockwall Was Named for a Literal Rock Wall

The Home to Enjoy Marina LivingA Hill Country Vibe in the CityRockwall Downes Home Fully Loaded

The city of Rockwall is named for an usual discovery that early North Texas explorers found while digging a well. They came across a natural rock formation with long and narrow stacked rocks that looked like bricks in a wall. Naturally, they named the city for its subterranean wall that still exists below private land. Seems like a solid foundation to name a city and a great foundation for these three homes we’re featuring in this week’s Suburb Sunday.

Work from home in the office located on the first floor with walk-in closet, or use it as a fifth bedroom.
