The Addicks Bear Creek Cemetery contains the graves of many of the original German settlers.
By 1947 the community was forced to move several miles south near the current intersection of I-10 and Highway 6 since the old location became the site for the Addicks Reservoir.
Other old buildings located near the southeast corner of I-10 and Highway 6, make up a trendy area of shops, antique stores, and restaurants.
While most of the original Addicks-Howell Road was paved over during the re-routing of present-day Highway 6, the northernmost stretch still exists just south of its intersection with Interstate 10.
Portions of Jackrabbit Road south of US 290 remain; it is east of current SH 6.
