Galveston After Ike

Today's photos were all taken on the drive down Broadway in Galveston last weekend. Broadway is Galveston's main boulevard. It runs between I-45 from Houston and the beach and is the address for many of Galveston's grand historic homes. In each photo you can see something different of the damage remaining and under repair three weeks after the arrival of hurricane Ike. The common element in each photo is the dead (or dying) greenery (I assume from being covered by salt water from the Gulf of Mexico):
