You might be thinking to yourself that a lake is a natural attraction. In the case of North Lake, man created this aquatic masterpiece. Work on the reservoir began in 1956 and was completed the following year. The dam and resulting lake were originally planned to provide cooling for the Dallas Power and Light Company. Since it was never intended to be a recreational site, fish had a hard time living in the waters of the lake. In the 70's the Dallas Park and Recreation Department decided to fertilize the water and stock it with bass for the pleasure of the residents and guests of this area.
