Seventeen foreign editors and publishers toured Houston on a 30 day U S visit to learn about the port. They rode the Sam Houston along the ship channel, viewed NASA facilities, and spoke with seamen about U S life. Vaughn Bryant guided the trip, noting $37 million in port improvements over nine years and a 200 acre industrial park opening.
Over nine years Harris County Houston Ship Channel Navigation District spent 37.22 million on major capital, funded mostly from earnings and revenue bonds. It opened a 200 acre industrial park behind Public Wharves 7 to 25, with future wharves 26 to 32 planned, plus 21 sea outlet sites. In 1965 the district bought the Long Beach Docks assets for 6.5 million via revenue bonds and will lease back to Gulf Atlantic Warehouse for five years at 450 thousand annually.
