History

Table Rock was built in the late 1970s by

community center. The village began to decline after El Paso Corp. acquired CIG in 2001. In 2003, the plant and town were bought by Anadarko Petroleum, which then decided not to operate the village. Table Rock was closed in July 2003. The housing units were sold to real estate developers, and some of the houses were moved to Rock Springs.[3]

The remaining homes were demolished in late August 2011,[4] leaving the community center as the only structure standing on the village site, and it was scheduled to be moved.
