Notes
  • Significance: Designed by the U.S. Engineer Office of Galveston, Texas in 1943 and constructed the following year by the Esslinger-Misch Company of Texas City, Texas for approximately $100,500, the Fort Point District Boat Yard, Pattern Warehouse was built to store wooden patterns used in casting parts for dredge machinery. Dredge machinery operated by the Galveston District COE and repaired with parts cast from patterns stored at the Pattern Warehouse were instrumental in the opening of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, as well as other important navigation channels in Galveston Bay and along Texas' rivers and coast. Casting of the dredge machinery parts was conducted by commercial foundries in and around the Galveston area.
