Over the last few decades, Dallas’ urban/suburban areas have expanded rapidly by consuming arable land in the countryside. The city is expanding in almost every direction. These images show the northeastern suburbs of Plano, Allen, and McKinney. The lake on the east side of the images is Lavon Lake.
