    Harbor Bridge - SH181 - Driving on the old Harbor Bridge for one of the last times that it would be open. New bridge next to it on the right. (5.28.2025)

    When my brother was driving us back home from Corpus Christi, the radio dj was going on and on…read moreabout this bridge drama. I thought surely she wasn't talking about the brand new one that was next to the Harbor Bridge - SH181 I drove us across to get to the ferry. Sure enough, that was the one. It had a crack in it. Brand new bridge. Never had traffic on it, but apparently the crack was superficial because they had traffic on it starting today (June 28, 2025). Goodbye old bridge. I guess you weren't tall enough. Not wide enough for the growing coastal city. But you sure were a good one! Traffic always moved fast when I crossed this bridge. Loved the views. Loved the way it used to look. Here's info on the new bridge: https://harborbridgeproject.com/

    We took this bridge from a couple times from downtown Corpus Christi to North Beach. This is an…read moreold bridge, it was opened to traffic in 1959. I love the arch and all the metal work. We never went across it at night, but in 2011, they added LED lighting system. It would have been cool to see it at night, but the opportunity never arose. You can view this bridge from so many places! We saw it from the Texas State Aquarium and the USS Lexington on the North Beach side. I'm afraid to report that this bridge is now being replaced with a taller bridge. So tall in fact, that it will be built above the current bridge. It will look very different and modern, a bridge with strands of cables . The new bridge will allow larger ships to pass under it. After the completion of this new bridge, the current one will be demolished. That is what I've read.

    The art is really nice! I was actually pleasantly surprised. I had such a good time taking a look…read moreat all the wonderful pieces especially Dorothy Hood. The only thing that bothered me was the etiquette of some of the other attendees. Some of them were really loud and commenting loudly on each piece which kind of took away from my experience. They also happened to have a dance performance from the Texas AMA inside which is cool, power to all arts including dance but it was distracting and smack dab in the middle of some interesting pieces I would've liked more time with before my flight. Elizabeth's was a cool restaurant. The blood orange ahi tuna was really delicious like spot on. My martini was okay. They didn't have olives and I've had better being from vegas. Prices are fair though and the staff is decently nice. Lots of crying babies in there when I went though which kind of killed the artsy vibe I was hoping for but I guess that happens in a touristy part of town in Texas. Overall it was nice I'm just a sensitive person and enjoy quiet to ponder art and eat my meal so consider that if you're traveling solo and are similar I suppose. Gift shop was cool and I had a nice chat with the lovely lady in there. And the security guard was cool, he let me store my luggage with him. It's a quick walk over from the convention center so if you want a little art time and a quick drink and meal that's super convenient, it's kind of a no brainer.

    Opens late for Buc Days. Well thanks for ruining my day off . Was ready to relax and enjoy Art. Not…read moreso much thanks to Buc Days.

    Wow what an experience. This is a classic in the aircraft carrier world. The museam allows you to…read moretour a significant portion of the ship. We truly enjoyed the experience. The recommendation was to tour all the public levels and then go so the movie (which is no additional charge) at the end. Be ready to climb some steps and do a lot of walking. The have a single elevator however that only goes one floor. It's not really an accesable museum. We spent many hours on our selfguided tour. It took almost an entire day. I'm sure, if you don't have the time, you can speed it up but we were not in a hurry.

    By far the best tourist attraction in Corpus Christi is the USS Lexington. If you're a museum lover…read moreor a military history fan, this place is an absolute must-visit. Plan to spend about 3-4 hours if you want to explore every level, read the exhibits, and fully experience everything the ship has to offer. Admission was only $20, and the value is incredible. You can climb all the way to the top of the ship, and they even have a "walk the plank" experience where you step off the side of the ship (safely, of course). There are tons of interactive and 3D-style exhibits throughout, making it fun for families, kids, and history buffs alike. I genuinely enjoyed myself and would definitely go back. If you're in Corpus Christi, this is the highlight of the city.
