Ghosts of Houston's Market Square Park | Free Book
Sandra Lord, Debe Branning
Visitors to Market Square Park can pause on their stroll through the
downtown centerpiece for a palpable experience of its past. Houston's
first four city halls laid their foundations here, and relics of the
square's heritage remain embedded in the sidewalks of the park. Chalk
up a chance sneeze on Milam Street to the final ghostly gasp of dust
from Robert Boyce's sawpits. Step from Congress Street into La Carafe,
Houston's oldest commercial building, for the kind of atmosphere that
even deceased bartenders are reluctant to leave. From the phantom
tailors above Treebeard's to the forgotten mysteries of the town's
founding, Sandra Lord and Debe Branning resurrect the history humming
through the four blocks surrounding Market Square Park.
