A metal disk embedded in a square concrete pedestal with the words "United States Engineer Dept" inscribed on its surface, as well as the following details:
* Stamped Name or No. --> "T-BR"
* Stamped Elevation --> "27.3"

The marker denotes the Southeastern boundary of George Bush Park ("GBP") which straddles both the SW Harris and NE Fort Bend county lines. The actual marker is situated at the Southeastern corner of a water treatment facility located at the edge of the Park, a few inches off the ground and just 12 inches East (outside) of the wooden fence enclosing said treatment facility. If in doubt, see the uploaded gallery images for a visual reference of the actual location.
