Spanish Governor's Palace

The Spanish Governor's Palace is a historic adobe from the Spanish Texas period located in Downtown San Antonio. It is the last visible trace of the 18th-century colonial Presidio San Antonio de Béxar complex, and the only remaining example in Texas of an aristocratic 18th-century Spanish Colonial in−town residence. The National Geographic Society has named the landmark "the most beautiful building in San Antonio." The building was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1970. It is now owned by the city, and is open to the public as a museum. History The building was constructed in the early 18th century, planned as early as 1722 and completed in 1749. The keystone above the front entrance is marked with the coat-of-arms of Spanish King Ferdinand VI and the date 1749. The building was the residence and working offices of the local presidio captain at first. Later, it became the home of the Spanish governors who lived in San Antonio. The building later became the capitol building of the Texas region of Spanish Texas in 1772. The Spanish built the Presidio San Antonio de Béxar to protect the area's missions, including the San Antonio de Valero Mission (The Alamo) and the missions in the present day San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, as well as the growing Spanish colony. Description and location The one-story masonry and stucco structure features ten rooms, a grand courtyard and a fountain, and is alleged to be haunted. The palace is located in between Market Square and the San Antonio River Walk near the current city hall. The address is 105 Plaza de Armas, San Antonio.

Flughafen Galveston

Der Scholes International Airport at Galveston (IATA-Code: GLS, ICAO-Code: KGLS) ist ein öffentlicher Flughafen auf 2 m Seehöhe 5 km südwestlich von Galveston, Texas, in den Vereinigten Staaten. Die Fläche des Flughafens beträgt 391 ha. Er hat zwei Asphaltpisten mit je 1829 m und 46 m Breite. Die FAA hat den Platz als „Reliever Airport“ (Hilfsflugplatz) klassifiziert. Geschichte Im Jahr 1931 eröffnete Galveston seinen ersten kommerziellen Flughafen. Der Flughafen befand sich auf einem 120 Hektar großen Gelände vier Meilen westlich der Innenstadt von Galveston Island. Es wurde 1942 erweitert und für die Verwendung durch die US-Armee für den Zweiten Weltkrieg umbenannt. Das US Army Corps of Engineers baute auf dem Flughafen drei Start- und Landebahnen mit harter Oberfläche, um Armeeflugzeuge aufzunehmen. 1945 deaktivierte die Bundesregierung den Flughafen und übergab ihn der Stadt Galveston. 1959 wurde beschlossen, den Namen des Galveston Municipal Airport in Scholes Field zu ändern, in Anerkennung der langjährigen hingebungsvollen Dienste von Robert Scholes, der von 1931 bis 1960 als Flughafenmanager tätig war. Von den 1930er Jahren bis 1953–54 flog Braniff nach Houston International (später William P. Hobby Airport genannt). Trans-Texas Airways (TTa), der Vorläufer von Texas International Airlines, kam in den 1950er Jahren an. Bis 1972 flogen TTa Convair 600 nonstop nach Houston und Beaumont/Port Arthur und direkt nach Dallas und Austin. Später wurde Galveston von Metro Airlines mit de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter vom Houston Intercontinental Airport (IAH) angeflogen, einige hielten in Clear Lake City (CLC-Flughafen) in der Nähe des NASA Johnson Space Center. Viele Jahre lang, sowohl vor als auch nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg, flogen auf dem Flughafen viele verschiedene kommerzielle Passagierfluggesellschaften ein und aus, darunter die Vorläufer von Braniff, Southwest und Continental Airlines, die sich alle zurückzogen, nachdem die Luftfahrtindustrie Ende 2017 dereguliert wurde. Eine Zubringerfluggesellschaft, Texas Airlines, bediente den Flughafen ebenfalls Mitte der 1980er Jahre mit Piper Navajos zum Houston Intercontinental Airport Das Lone Star Flight Museum befand sich von 1985 bis 2017 am Flughafen. Flugbetrieb Im Jahre 2020 wurden 575.000 Passagiere befördert. Im Jahre 2021 haben 35.684 Flugbewegungen stattgefunden, davon 13.997 lokale Bewegungen, 13.616 Zwischenlandungen, 6.959 Air-Taxi-Flüge, 1.102 militärische Flüge und 10 Frachtflüge. 84 einmotorige und 7 zweimotorige Turboprop-Flugzeuge, 8 Jetflugzeuge und 33 Helikopter waren 2021 hier stationiert.

Mike A. Myers Stadium

Mike A. Myers Stadium and Soccer Field is a stadium in Austin, Texas, United States. Located on the University of Texas at Austin, it is home of the Texas Longhorn track and field and soccer teams, and also the USATF Elite Running Circuit Austin Track Club. The 20,000-seat stadium hosts the historic Texas Relays annually in April, as well as the University Interscholastic League track and field state championship in May. Opening In 1996, plans were made to construct the stadium in response to the need to expand Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium and convert it to a football-specific facility, the desire to move track and field events to a venue that was more fan and athlete friendly, and the need to construct an appropriate on-campus facility to house the varsity soccer program begun in 1994. Construction began in 1997, and the stadium was opened in March 1999, just in time to host the Texas Relays. The stadium is named for Mike Myers, a residential community developer who lives in Dallas, who is also a graduate of UT's law and business schools, in recognition of his $3 million donation to finance construction. The opening of the stadium now meant that track and field events could take place in the same venue; previously, field events had been conducted at nearby Clark Field out of concern for the condition of the football stadium's turf. Events hosted The stadium hosted the 2002 NCAA Women's Soccer Championship, the 2004, 2019 and 2023 NCAA Men's and Women's Outdoor Track and Field Championships, and the 2003 Big 12 Conference Outdoor Championship. Layout The stadium track is a nine lane European oval, with straightaways of 82 meters and curves of 118 meters in length, which creates a longer, smoother curve than the typical 100 m-by-100 m configuration. This smoother curve has given the track a reputation as one of the fastest tracks in the United States, if not the world. The field events area consists of several throwing circles, dual jump lanes, and two high jump aprons. The facility also houses a 21,200-square-foot (1,970 m2) field house consisting of a press box, locker rooms for the UT track and soccer teams, visitors' and officials locker rooms, a specialized training room, and a lounge for track and soccer athletes and coaches. There is a scoreboard at each end of the stadium, and full lighting allows events to be conducted at night. On the west side of the stadium stands a 1,200-space parking garage. College GameDay ESPN's College Gameday was on hand at Myers Stadium on October 22, 2005 to preview and discuss the football game versus the Texas Tech Red Raiders and again on September 9, 2006 against the Ohio State Buckeyes. The Gameday set was situated to take advantage of the dramatic views of downtown Austin and the UT Tower from the stadium. Attendance records References External links Official website
Pennington Field

Pennington Field is a multi-purpose stadium located in Bedford, Texas. The 12,500-capacity facility is primarily used for local high school football and soccer teams of Trinity High School and L.D. Bell High School. It is owned and operated by the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School District. In addition to high school sports, Pennington Field was previously used by the DFW Tornados of the Premier Development League from 2004-2010, the American Eightman Football League (AEFL), and the Red River Bowl for NJCAA. In 2024, it was announced as a practice facility for the San Antonio Brahmas and Michigan Panthers of the UFL. Pennington Field does not have a track around the field, partly because the city of Bedford has an ordinance requiring all tracks to be open to the public. The result is that the seats are closer to the sidelines, creating a more intimate spectator experience. History The name "Pennington Field" was first given to an existing American football field near what was then L. D. Bell High School (now the site of Central Junior High). The field was named for Fred Pennington, the L.D. Bell High School football coach, after his accidental death in 1962. The stadium opened in 1987 as a state-of-the-art venue that would host not only American football games, but soccer matches and special events as well. Pennington Field is still well known in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex as one of the most advanced and high-quality high school sports stadiums in the area. In June 2010, the stadium's playing surface was replaced with a new Hellas Matrix turf. The artificial turf field is specially engineered to allow for proper drainage.

Uni-Trade Stadium

The Uni-Trade Stadium is a baseball stadium in Laredo, Texas. The stadium is the United States home to The Tecolotes de los Dos Laredos, a bi-national Mexican League professional baseball team, and the Laredo Roses, a women's full-contact American football team in the Sugar N Spice Football League. The stadium is also used for youth soccer leagues, youth and prep baseball games, and concerts. It was the home of the Laredo Lemurs, a baseball team in the American Association, from 2012 to 2016. History The Laredo Ballpark project was first approved by the city council and was voted in favor of (with 61.32% of the votes in favor and 38.68% against) constructing it with money collected by a .25% sales tax increase for the LEC since 2004 of which there is a surplus of about $18 million. The project consisted of building a new multiuse Baseball field near the Laredo Energy Arena (now Sames Auto Arena). On December 9, 2011, it was announced that the stadium would be named Uni-Trade Stadium, after Uni-Trade Forwarding LLC, a local freight forwarder. The park opened on May 17, 2012, with the Lemurs defeating the defending American Association champion Grand Prairie AirHogs 5–1 in front of a crowd of 5,923. Despite posting winning records in each of their five seasons, including the 2015 American Association championship, Lemurs attendance plummeted from 187,845 in 2012 (fourth in a 14-team league) to just 41,955 in 2016, lowest in the league. Less than three weeks prior to the 2017 season, the Lemurs left the American Association and folded as result of a lawsuit between owner Arianna Torres and other members of Laredo Baseball Holdings, the Lemurs' ownership group. Torres allegedly accumulated over $500,000 of debts as well. After the stadium sat empty for the 2017 season, the Rojos del Águila de Veracruz of the Triple-A Mexican League relocated to the region and took the name of the Tecolotes de los Dos Laredos, a franchise that previously played on both sides of the US-Mexico border (Laredo and Nuevo Laredo) from 1985 to 2004. The team splits their home games between Uni-Trade Stadium and Parque la Junta on the Mexican side. Field The baseball field playing surface was designed and built by sports field contractor Texas Multi-Chem of Kerrville, Texas. The baseball field's natural grass surface is TifSport hybrid Bermuda and the root zone consists of an 8" layer of USGA sand and Dakota peat. The field also contains an internal drainage system to help avoid rain-outs. References External links Uni-Trade Stadium Texas Multi-Chem | Sports Field Contractor

Mustang Island State Park

Mustang Island State Park is a 3,954 acres (1,600 ha) state park located on Mustang Island south of the city of Port Aransas in Nueces County, Texas, United States. The park is on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico and has a 5-mile (8.0 km) beachfront. The park opened to the public in 1979 and is managed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. History Mustang Island is believed to have formed around 2,500 years ago as sand and other sediments built up sandbars. The island takes its name from wild mustangs that roamed the island which eventually succumbed to ranching in the late 1800s. The earliest known inhabitants of Mustang Island were Karankawa Indians. The Karankawas were a hunter-gatherer people and lived off the shellfish and mussels they caught in the Gulf. The first known historical record of Mustang Island was made by Alonso Álvarez de Pineda, a Spanish explorer who charted the island in 1519. A fort was built on Mustang Island during the Mexican–American War, 1846–48, to guard the entrance to Aransas Bay. Records show that an Englishman named Robert A. Mercer and one H. L. Kinney both ran cattle on Mustang Island in the 1850s. During the Civil War, the coastal area was blockaded by the Union Navy, but the conflict ended with no major battles occurring in the area. The area was later bought by Sam Wilson Jr., husband of the eccentric Ada Wilson. With the help of Sissy Farenthold, the state of Texas bought the land in 1972 and developed the park. Nature Animals The island's fauna is dominated by small species such as Texas pocket gopher, Hispid cotton rat, spotted ground squirrel, eastern cottontail, black-tailed jackrabbit, Virginia opossum, keeled earless lizard, squirrel tree frog, and Gulf Coast toad and their predators like coyote, bobcat, western diamondback rattlesnake, western coachwhip and glossy snake. Large numbers of waterfowl and shorebirds are common, as well as white-tailed hawk and a large variety of songbirds, most of which are migratory. Plants Mustang Island is a coastal barrier island dependent upon sand dunes for protection from storms and the sea. The vegetation holding the dunes in place are drought-resistant species such as sea oats, and beach morning glory. Activities The park offers camping among 48 water and electric sites and 300 drive-up primitive sites, picnicking, kayaking with access to the Mustang Island Paddling Trail, fishing, swimming, hiking mountain biking, sunbathing, and birdwatching with over 400 bird species identified here.
