Josephine

Josephine spans Collin and Hunt counties. Its townsite developed with the railroad in 1888, and the city’s historical marker is located at City Park on South Main and Swanson streets. The park’s pavilion and seasonal splash pad provide a contemporary local reference point alongside that history.
