History

the text in this section is copied from an article in Wikipedia

Lincoln Park is one of several towns that incorporated in Denton County, Texas in the early 1970s to sell alcohol in this otherwise dry county. Incorporated in 1971, Lincoln Park served the Denton, Texas to McKinney, Texas corridor of US Highway 380, supplying both college students from Denton and travellers passing through with drinks. After both Denton and McKinney voted to allow alcoholic sales in their cities, Lincoln Park began to decline. Today it consists of the original mobile home park, a liquor store and a Trail Dust restaurant.
