Summary

[edit]
Description

Few of the warehouses and wharves that once lined Buffalo Bayou at downtown remain.

These buildings, on the bayou, between Fannin and San Jacinto, front on Commerce Street and are owned by Harris County.

The ladder and door at the lower right were used in the 1920s by Captain G. C. Griffin, the owner of the G. C, Griffin Sand & Shell Company, and the first woman pilot and licensed captain on the bayou, to get to her tug.

The debris in the window just right of center gives some indication of how high the bayou can get during storms such as Hurricane Ike.
