U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Benchmark DN0682 - Denton, TX - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

In 1971, TX 24 west of Greenville became part of US 380, which is called University Drive in Denton. The benchmark is not difficult to find, although the culvert is partially broken up. This benchmark may be threatened, as there is serious construction going on in this lot, which backs up to a vacant automotive service center.
