Are you sure it's not Musk Beach?
ReplyDeleteYes, I forgot about the small bribe Musk gave to the city of Brownsville in exchange for control of Boca Chica. Musk has long since violated the entire agreement he signed with Carlos Cascos and other officials originally agreeing to hinder beach use only 12 days per year.
DeleteI’m a young guy had never heard of Del Mar
ReplyDeleteThe ad is from the depression era… very interesting image
ReplyDeleteBoca chica bring back fond memories… we used to load up our pickup truck including the dog and spend all day Saturday at the beach… thx to our political leaders musk has stolen our natural playground
ReplyDeleteBoca chica road to the beach was completed by the summer of 1930
ReplyDeleteSpace x continues to change the face of Boca Chica, Brownsville n the port area… for good or bad the future of this area will be engulfed in pollution
ReplyDeleteWelcome to Channelview!
DeleteWow… unbelievable scene with hundreds of cars lined up right by the water… can’t believe so many people owned cars during that era
ReplyDeleteHard to believe how many 30's cars lined the beach. . Now, post SpaceX, there's usually only about 8-10 cars on the entire eight mile beach.
ReplyDeleteWonderful ad… it reveals that the influential didn’t lack entertainment. Unlike today u did not have to pay to enjoy the beach… free excess
ReplyDelete4:14 pm. My family n many others would take tents and spend the night. Especially during the time when there was a full moon.. the dunes were big n a lot fun to play hide n seek. Simple days when time didn’t matter
ReplyDeleteBoca chica a historical landmark gone forever. It was a natural playground that attracted thousands of Brownsville natives throughout the decades. Now, the sea breeze has been replaced by the sound n smell of rocket fuel… what a shame!
ReplyDeleteWow… unbelievable view of buildings with cottages… too bad it had be demolished… thx for the rare images
ReplyDeleteIncredible what Sam Robinson from San Benito did
ReplyDeleteIt was col Sam Robertson who had the vision to create Del Mar beach as the best resort in Tex
ReplyDeleteWhat happened? Why was this beach lost? Who was in charge of keeping it pristine, top entertainment place and with many attractions?
ReplyDeleteDancing in the beach !! The past is better, sometimes.
ReplyDeleteThey did more with less… I remind you that this was during the depression era… politicians were not as crooked as today. When you could go to the movies, buy popcorn an a coke for 25 cents. Rutledge hamburgers sold for 15 cents but that was considered expensive during the depression. Eventually they came down to 10 cents
ReplyDeleteInteresting BC history. A city in the middle of nowhere that was created in dark economic times. How did they do it we should ask? A paved highway from Brownsville to BC another millstone by county leaders of then. Visionaries to say the least versus today’ s self centered ego money mongers
