helicopter Posted January 6, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 6, 2012 on the Magic in June and noticed they are building a new entertainment type pier (Paradise Pier) where the Flagship use to be. How is the pier coming along? I read it should be finished in May...would love if it were finished when we are there:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sealy street Posted January 7, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Here is link to The Galveston Pleasure Pier: http://www.pleasure-pier.com/ gives completion date of "summer 2012". I do know that there will be a Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. restaurant on the pier, this is from Galveston.com website: Return of Historic Pleasure Pier In May 2012, Galveston Island will bring the glory of its famous past into the present with the opening of the Historic Pleasure Pier. The amusement park, reminiscent of the pleasure pier that was built on the island in the 1940s, will include 16 rides, a full-service restaurant, midway games, shopping and live entertainment. A project of Landry’s Inc., the pier is located on the Gulf of Mexico off Seawall Boulevard at 25th Street where a pleasure pier stood from the early 1940s to 1961. The Flagship Hotel stood on the pier from 1965 to 2011. For updates on the project, visit www.pleasure-pier.com. Hope it's done when you are here!!

afcruiser Posted January 8, 2012 #5 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Does anyone know when Bubba Gumps will open? We have fond memories of, however, not one where we live.:eek: Just curious. This will be our first cruise out of Galveston. Looking for good foodie op's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
