Tilman Fertitta, who built a fortune with a showman's flair, is resurrecting one of Galveston's most iconic tourist attractions - the Pleasure Pier.

How far is the Kemah Boardwalk from this location?

My favorite MJ tune: "Billie Jean" which I have been listening to alot now. RIP MJ.

Roughly thirty miles, and this place and Kemah are Landry's properties

The Iron Shark coaster! Iron Wolf, Draggin', now a shark. Very cool though.
