Acacia Creek, a neighborhood northeast of and adjacent to Fort Wayne, Indiana, is one of the Communities of Foxwood developed by the Northeastern Group. It is located on Wheelock Road at Interstate 469. Acacia Creek was originally named Fiddler's Creek. A name change was required when it was determined that a neighborhood of the same name existed in the Naples, Florida region.
Famous quotes containing the word creek:
“It might be seen by what tenure men held the earth. The smallest stream is mediterranean sea, a smaller ocean creek within the land, where men may steer by their farm bounds and cottage lights. For my own part, but for the geographers, I should hardly have known how large a portion of our globe is water, my life has chiefly passed within so deep a cove. Yet I have sometimes ventured as far as to the mouth of my Snug Harbor.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
