Overview

§ 01

Located in the iconic Clarke & Courts Building in the Historic Strand Entertainment District of downtown Galveston, this loft is in the perfect location for soaking up all the festivities firsthand just steps away from the best shopping, dining, and entertainment that Galveston has to offer, including the Mardi Gras Parade route! This unique space perfectly combines historic charm with modern elegance, featuring soaring 13-foot ceilings that create an airy, expansive feel. Enjoy the open-concept design that maximizes every inch of the loft, making it ideal for those who appreciate the simplicity of urban living without sacrificing comfort. Plus, you're just a short stroll from the cruise terminals and the University of Texas Medical Branch. A new building elevator has been installed, a new parking garage is under construction along with a swimming pool, and a new roof in 2024. All assessments have been paid.

MUD Disclosure (§49.452)

§ 03 · Data moat
● §49.452 Notice
Not in archive
This MUD is not yet in our §49.452 archive. We'll add it on request.

Texas Water Code §49.452 requires districts to publish annual notices with tax rate, bonded indebtedness, and assessed value. Most Harris-area MUDs publish these; a handful managed by Inframark do not.

Request this notice
● What this tells you

The §49.452 notice is the only public document that lists a MUD's exact tax rate, outstanding bond debt, and the assessed value used to compute your taxes — direct from the district, not the MLS. If the district is newer or has more bonds outstanding than its neighbors, your effective tax rate will be higher here than just across the street.
