The Strand in Galveston's National Historic Landmark District is a 36-block area of beautifully restored Victorian commercial architecture from the island's Gilded Age heyday as the wealthiest city in Texas and the Wall Street of the Southwest. The ornate cast-iron facades, boutiques, restaurants, and the Texas Seaport Museum with the restored tall ship Elissa create one of the finest Victorian streetscapes in the United States. Hotels near The Strand in north Galveston are ideally placed for both the historic district and cruise terminal.
