Historically, Grapevine has a unique connection to the past.  In 1843, General Sam Houston met at Grape Vine Springs with leaders of ten Native American tribes to sign a peace treaty.  At the time, Grape Vine Springs was named for the mustang grapes that grew wild in the area.  Later, the name was shortened to Grapevine.  In 2007, CNNMoney named Grapevine one of “America’s Best Places to Live.”
