Galveston Red Light District Tour
Beskrivning
Kliv in i Galvestons mest skandalösa hemlighet, där polisen stannade vid bron och vice styrde ön. Återvänd till en era där Galveston var känt som "America's Playground", ett vidöppet syndens paradis där hasardspel, sprit, bordeller och back-room erbjudanden blomstrade under skydd av organiserad brottslighet. Så länge pengarna flödade behandlades besökarna som familj och njutningen kom utan konsekvenser. Kasinon pulserade genom natten, och Red Light District frodades bakom omärkta dörrar. Korruption viskades inte längre, var det väntat. Detta var Galvestons egen Vegas-dröm, komplett med världsklassunderhållare som Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. och Dean Martin som uppträder bara några steg bort från prostitution, utbetalningar och olagliga nöjen. På den här turnén får du upptäcka de historier de försökte begrava, de platser där makten köptes med tjänster, och hur Galveston blev ett av de mest ökända Red Light Districts i Amerika, som alla gömmer sig helt öppet.

Resplan
Ursprungligen Oleander Hotel 1913. Listas i Green Book som fristad i Jim Crow South. En plats där afroamerikanska resenärer kunde stanna sin resa till Galveston.
Utgångspunkten för Mace-riket. Formellt Sam och Rosarrio första frisörsbutik där de startade vin och sprit för sin törstig gäst.
Formellt Molly Waters hem. En av de mest kända husen på ön. Molly är Galvestons mest ökända fru när hon pensionerade en miljonär. Huset är för närvarande återställt.
På höjden av Red Light-distriktet tog järnvägen in 40 000 män per dag och alla letade efter kärlek.
