The famous Jimmie Walker´s Edgewater Restaurant with the club "UP´s", a famous hot spot in the 1980´s. This building was built in 1963 after Hurricane Carla in 1962 destroyed the previous building from the 1950´s.

Bigger Picture    
 

The restaurants located on the tip of the Kemah Waterfront, overlooking Galveston Bay, changed often with each hurricane that would pass through the upper Texas coast. In 1983, Hurricane Alicia dramatically changed the waterfront. Jimmie Walkers lost the inside of the entire bottom floor, but the building was one to the few to be left standing. Currently, the building is home to Landry´s Seafood Restaurant on the Kemah Boardwalk.
