The Depot-on-Market, Galveston, Texas, USA

The Depot-on-Market is an attraction focused on the Great Flood of 1900, which remains the largest natural disaster ever to hit the USA.

Assisting the Galveston Historic Foundation in their transition to a contemporary cultural tourism business under the #galvestonhistory brand, by developing location-based tourism attractions in historic venues, featuring highly themed historic environments and sophisticated individualised interactivity.

The walk-through exhibition confronts visitors with the scale and magnitude of the catastrophic event, and traces individual stories of survival and loss. “Raising-the-grade” to protect the island from future storms, and the reinvention of the town as a popular resort demonstrates the resilience of the human spirit.

The attraction is currently in development with opening scheduled for 2021.
