It's rare that you find an inviting BRB (Big Red Button) just sitting out in the world, with no warning signs, and no indication as to its purpose. Yet hidden in a shallow niche on Houston's Preston Street Bridge is just such an enigma. Go ahead and press it. The button is part of an ecological art installation that helps keep the bayou below the bridge from becoming stagnant.

Service between Galveston and Port Bolivar is currently provided via a ferry operated by the Texas Department of Transportation linking both halves of State Highway 87. The state-operated ferry has operated since 1934, replacing earlier operations. Due to the rapid growth of the Greater Houston area (which includes Galveston County), the commute time required to board the ferry has rapidly increased (during the summer the wait can be up to two hours), which slows emergency response times.

Oak Island, between the east and west forks of the Double Bayou eight miles south of Anahuac in central Chambers County (60 miles east of Houston), was named for an island of oak trees near the bayou's mouth. In 1880 Joshua Harmon moved a cotton gin across the bay to the site of what is now Job Beason Park, but the community was founded in 1951 by real-estate developers Charles Troy and R. L. Hall on what was then the site of a fishing camp. Eight Mile, Cotton Gin, West Fork, Oak Island, Real Estate Development, Gulf Coast, Oak Tree
