Houston Ship Channel: Deep Water Centennial

The Houston Ship Channel is celebrating its centennial as a deep water port in 2014, and a new documentary explores the rich history, as well as present-day operations of the Houston Ship Channel and the Port of Houston, one of the busiest ports in the United States.

This is what we should be taught in Texas history class. Stuff like this makes one really proud to be Texan 🤠

[@sbrega145]

A great history and documentary of the Port of Houston, (and to a lessor extent, Galveston/Baytown). The Sam Houston Boat Tour is quite fun for those who are interested, its free but busy, sigh up ahead of time. This video should be updated in a few years, Port of Houston will keep growing!!!!!!!

I remember our school took a field trip to the port as kids, one of the more memorable trips for sure. It's nice to see the progress it's taken up now.

[@prolke]

At its core, this is a PR piece for the port. It is chock full of interesting historical details. The videography is exquisite. "Beneficial Marshes"?

[@DavidFalloure]

I would say at its core, it's history, bookended by PR.

So funny how the Allen brothers "embelleshed" the beauty of Houston.

Our fair city began as a real estate scam.

[@rolanddesoignie4939]

A true jewel for Houston. Not well publicized. We are fortunate to have this port.

Took a hurricane to 'straighten' Galveston out...

[@DavidFalloure]

The hurricane had nothing to do with it. Houston was already on the cusp of surpassing Galveston.

I guess for some people it's difficult to keep an open mind. Those of us who do so will enjoy the video.
