Noted Galveston leader R. Waverly Smith commissioned architect George Stowe to design and build this house in 1896. The house survived The Great Storm of 1900, the 1915 Hurricane, Hurricane Carla, and, more recently, Hurricane Ike. We have lived here and loved this place for ten years. If houses can love people, she has certainly loved us! Enjoy this album of some photos we've taken to share with people like you.
In the early morning hours of September 13, 2008, Hurricane Ike struck Galveston Island. The storm surge from the back side of the island inundated a large portion of the island. Twenty-four inches of salt water covered our lawn and gardens. This album contains photographs depicting the resiliency of the trees, shrubs, and other plants in our garden eight months after the storm.
