City of Laredo,
Texas
Laredo was founded on the north bank of
the Río Grande on May 15, 1755, when Captain Tomás Sánchez,
with three families, was granted permission to settle 15
leagues of land near an Indian fort on the Río Grande.
Operated as a family rancho, the Sánchez estate ran
cattle, sheep, goats, horses, mules and oxen. In 1767, the
city was laid out, and in the years to follow, ranching became
the sustenance of the colony.
Known today as the city under
seven flags, Laredo has emerged as the principal port of entry
into Mexico. As the second fastest growing city in the nation,
this border metropolis has greatly benefited from the
well-planned, historic "Streets of Laredo," and its urban core
continues to be reinvigorated as commercial areas and
neighborhoods make the "Gateway City" their home. More
