History
The explosion aboard the 'Grandecamp' ignited fires aboard the other two vessels, both of which exploded later that morning. On May 17, 1893, the Texas City Improvement Company filed the first townsite plat, and a post office was established. During the war, Texas City experienced remarkable growth. Many of the stores in the business district closed, and those that remained struggled to survive. The city ultimately recovered quite well from the accident and numerous petro-chemical refineries are still located in the same port area of Texas City.
