  • Evaluates and Plans for the Transportation Needs of the Nueces and San Patricio County Areas
    CSJ 0101-06-095 Affected Environment 3.0 AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT 3.1 LAND USE 3.1.1 History and Development Trends Permanent settlement in the area that would eventually become Corpus Christi began in the 1840s when Henry L. Kinney and William P. Aubrey established a trading post on the west shore of what is now called Corpus Christi Bay. In 1846, Corpus Christi became the county seat of newly formed Nueces County, and by the 1850s the city was laid out with numbered streets. After the Civil War, the city emerged as an important shipping center when the main ship channel was dredged to accommodate large steam ships. The first railroad arrived in 1875, with three more rail lines following by 1914 (Long 2012a). Mayor Roy Miller adopted an aggressive modernization program in 1913. In three years, the City had paved 12 miles of existing streets, constructed two miles of new streets, laid 26 miles of sanitary and storm sewers, built a garbage incinerator, and installed a new water system (WPA 1942, 169). Though travelers crossing Nueces Bay had utilized a raised oyster reef between the Nueces and Corpus Christi Bays since the 1840s, a reinforced concrete causeway was completed in 1915 (Givens and Moloney 2011, 11; 195). A hurricane in 1919 destroyed much of North Beach and the downtown area. The city was rebuilt quickly, and in 1926 a deep water port was opened to accommodate large vessels, ushering in a period of growth and prosperity for the area. The following year, a bascule bridge (drawbridge) was constructed over the Inner Harbor and opened to the traveling public.
