  • HERITAGE PARK in Corpus Christi
    HERITAGE PARK in Corpus Christi Heritage Park is the site of twelve historical Corpus Christi homes, the oldest dating back to 1851. Many of the homes are recorded as Texas Historical Landmarks and all have been beautifully restored. These twelve incredible homes are a tribute to the ethnic diversity and culture of the area. The Multicultural Center, located in the historic Galvan House, provides several events year round, giving visitors and residents alike a taste of the rich culture and tradition of the area. The Center also includes a Courtyard, Central Plaza and the Lytton Memorial Rose Garden. MERRIMAN‐BOBYS HOUSE 1521 NORTH CHAPARRAL STREET The Merriman‐Bobys House is the second oldest structure existing in Corpus Christi. (The oldest is the Centennial House located at 411 Upper Broadway.) The structure was built in 1851 by Walter Merriman, a lawyer and land developer. The house was used as a hospital during the Civil War and the yellow fever epidemic of 1867. Nearly one‐third of the population, including Corpus Christi’s only three doctors, died in the epidemic. The house had many owners over the years, including prominent ranchers who used it as a town home. Mr. & Mrs. Ernest Bobys purchased the house in 1936 and the local chapter of the Texas Poetry Society held meetings here. Morris Lichtenstein bought the house and later donated it to the City in 1981. It was moved from its original location on the Bluff in 1982 and restored by the Corpus Christi Arts Council. This is probably the most unique structure in Heritage Park, yet the most typical of early Corpus Christi architecture.

  • Hello Dolly Ike Slams Texas
    IKE SLAMS TEXAS By John Metz—Warning Coordination Meteorologist Ike evolved from a tropical disturbance that moved off the African coastline during the last week of August. As the disturbance moved into the central Atlantic a tropi- cal depression formed and quickly strengthened into tropical storm Ike. Ike reached hurricane status within 3 days and maintained hurricane strength for the remainder of its 2 week lifespan marching across the southern Bahamas, across both tips of Cuba, through the central Gulf of Mexico, and into Southeast Texas. Ike approached Texas as a very large hurricane with tropical storm force winds spanning a distance of 425 miles in diameter from northwest to southeast across the storm. Ike was actually larger in size than hurricane Katrina which was 380 miles in diameter. Hurricane Ike made landfall as a Category 2 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 110 mph. Hurricane force wind gusts spread well inland across southeast Texas reaching the city of Lufkin which is 150 miles from the coastline. Ike’s large wind field contributed to storm surge values well in excess of those normally associated with a category two storm. Preliminary estimates from the NWS at Houston/Galveston and the Harris County Appraisal District indicate that Ike’s peak storm tides reached 12-16 feet on the west side of Galveston Bay and possibly 16-20 feet along the shores of Chambers County, which lines the eastern portion of Galveston Bay. A significant surge of up to 10 feet was even observed 20 miles inland across Sabine Lake and into the community of Bridge City, which is located about 10 miles east of Beaumont along Interstate 10.
