Clear Lake City (Harris County)

-A A +A

Clear Lake City is a master-planned community, the largest in a series of suburban developments that began to populate the north shore of formerly rural Clear Lake following the U.S. government's establishment here in 1961 of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Manned Spacecraft Center ( AT27). The Clear Lake area is an amorphous supersprawl made up of individual master-planned increments. These are linked by NASA Parkway, which traverses the north shore of Clear Lake.
