Welcome. Mayor Jim Pruitt On behalf of the residents of Rockwall, the Rockwall City Council, and City Staff, I welcome you to the web site of one of the fastest growing cities in the Dallas Metroplex. Rockwall was founded in 1854 and is the County Seat of Rockwall County.
The Warriors changed their name to the Golden State Warriors for the 1971â72 season, playing almost all home games in Oakland. Six home games were played in San Diego during that season but more significantly, none were played in San Francisco or Daly City.
When the Braves moved on to Atlanta in 1966, they again made history. The franchise shifts of the previous decade all involved multi-team cities. During the 1950s, when the Braves, Browns, Aâs, Dodgers and Giants packed up and moved, Boston, St. Louis, Philadelphia, and New York were left with one franchise. When the Braves left Milwaukee, they left a void. The city of Milwaukee had been left behind once before.
