Cottage endures Carla hurricane in Galveston
In Galveston on September 17 1961 a $3000 frame cottage built by Jim Walter for Charles Moore withstood hurricane Carla’s 170 mph winds and 14 foot tides. Despite catastrophic damage along the Texas coast the exposed home lost only a shutter board and a few shingles. The city council had warned against such construction yet the cottage remained a striking example of sturdy design amid widespread destruction. Moore and his bride had planned the honeymoon cottage on the Gulf of Mexico shore.
