About thirty years later, the modern neighborhood of Glenbrook Valley took shape. With the launch of. the new Gulf Freeway, the first freeway in Texas, in 1948, Houstonians began to move out of the city. center and into planned neighborhoods of single-family homes.
In 2003, with permission from Queensbury, Glens Falls annexed approximately 49 acres (0.20 km 2) of the town. The land, known as Veterans Field or the Northway Industrial Park, is on Veterans Road between Luzerne Road and Sherman Avenue and is just east of I-87. The land was vacant at the time.
