La Marque was a little train stop that became a suburb of Galveston in the 50s. Nice homes, good local school.
And, no, “affordable housing” was why they didn’t want to live in Galveston.
Oh, well, time to move the suburbs out a bit further...
I lived in LaMarque as a little girl in the 50s..my father was one of the few Rs around back then....very few...
