Greetings

Welcome to our All-American community. This artist page illustrates the best assets of Texas City -- our children, our families, our parks and our memories. Volunteers and a public/private partnership took Goals 2000 plans and improved the natural beauty of our surroundings by adding park amenities and enhancements to enrich their appearance, functionality, and the historical significance of our community established in 1893.

Art makes our community more livable and we invite our guests to enjoy our recreational and cultural facilities, making your visit a most memorable event.


      

Fountains
Texas City has provided its residents and our guests with an array of statuary designed to excite just about everyone -- from the very young to young at heart. Whether it's the majestic Memorial Fountain at Memorial Park, or the popular Phoenix Fountain adorning the Charles T. Doyle Convention Center, each fountain adds its unique sense of elegance, freshness, and renewal to our beautiful community. Enjoy!
