Spring Branch East, located east of Bingle, is the oldest part of the larger Spring Branch community. Many industrial and warehouse developments are found in the northern and eastern parts of the community near Hempstead Highway and US 290. The former site of the Cameron Iron Works on I-10, the community’s southern boundary, is now being redeveloped as a retail and entertainment complex. New home construction is occurring near Wirt Road and in several gated subdivisions replacing deteriorated apartment complexes. Afton Village, Brykerwoods, Monarch Oaks, Ridgecrest, Hillendahl Acres, Long Point Oaks, Pine Terrace, and Westview Terrace are some of the other subdivisions in the area.
