On Plainview's 100th anniversary in 2007, the City decided to create a new tradition within the small town. Frontier Day was a celebration for what Plainview is at heart: It is a historical place where its best days were the old days. To give tourist a feel of this, the town built small old-fashioned buildings that were made to look like an old wild west town from the early 1900s. The City's Beautification Committee keeps the town decorated so beautifully throughout the year. Drive through the little town of Plainview any day and you are sure to see a few tourists, even locals, standing in the Old Frontier Town taking pictures and wondering what it would have been like back in those days.
