History of the Spring area
The area was settled by German immigrants in 1840. The Wunsche family settled in the area and began farming the land. The area had a tremendous growth after the railroad was built through the town in 1871. The town served as a railroad center in the early 1900's. A roundhouse was built and it was a major switchyard. The roundhouse was moved to Houston in 1923 and the Spring population began to decline. In the 1970's the Houston suburbs started expanding to the north. At that time some of the old houses in Spring were restored and became stores. The Old Town Spring Association was formed to promote this unique village. Old Town Spring has become a tourist attraction with all kinds of unique specialty stores.
Many locals remember that one of the three Goodyear blimps, the airship America was based here from 1969 to 1992. It was designed and built by Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company of Akron Ohio.
