Lake Olympia TX History


In 1982, a group of developers headed by Andrew M. Choy purchased a 1,000-acre parcel of land. The area had been previously owned by Edward Palmer, a former judge of the 7th Judicial District of Texas.

Previously known as the Palmer Plantation, the area was part of the original Stephen F. Austin land grants. Palmer bought 640 acres from David Bright in 1860, and the land stayed with the family until the early 1980s.

Lake Olympia opened in 1984, with 130 acres of lakes and mature trees.

The development was later sold to Tan Yu, a Filipino-Chinese businessman and philanthropist.

Today, Lake Olympia is one of the most popular master-planned communities in Missouri City. It has received several awards, including the National Association of Home Builders’ Gold MIRM Award and awards from the Texas Association of Builders and Greater Houston Builders Association.
