Just north of the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base and Lake Worth in Fort Worth, Texas is a new Outback Steakhouse being built next to Interstate 820. The area has seen significant development recently. The new Outback is being built between a Boomer Jack’s Grill built in 2020 and a Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen built about 4 years before. In the early 2010s, the first building built in this area was the AMC Lake Worth 14 theater.

Going back even further, to the earliest aerial images of the area, there was very little development until Interstate 820 was built in the 1970s. The area was also known as the home to the Lake Worth monster folklore. A creature that some citizens claimed to have seen in the area back in the late 1960s. The monster was said to be part-man, part-goat. However, no tangible evidence exists of this creature.
