History
Landry's, Inc. acquired property along the Kemah Waterfront in 1997 and opened the Kemah Boardwalk in 1998. In 2007, the Boardwalk Bullet, a high-speed wooden roller coaster opened on the boardwalk. The 96-foot-tall, 3,236-foot-long roller coaster is built on a 1-acre footprint, making it one of the most compact roller coasters in the world.
A new source published on December 27 of 2012 stated how an evacuation happened because of a device that was spotted on the broad walk near southeast of Houston on Galveston. The police got everyone out safely and said it was just a military device.[1]
The missing body of a five year old by the name of Fiona was found in the water near the Kemah Broadwalk. She was last seen on the marina dock with her father before going missing. There was no foul play found in the autopsy.[2]
