Hanna causes partial collapse of popular pier in Corpus Christi - KTRK-TV

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (KTRK) -- While the Houston area experienced the rain from Hurricane Hanna's outer bands, Corpus Christi and other communities felt its major impact Saturday.

The popular Bob Hall Pier collapsed during the storm, according to Corpus Christi Mayor Joe McComb. Wave action also took out concrete under the parking lot ramp leading up to the pier.


It was the biggest surprise to the city, considering the pier survived Hurricane Harvey and other major storms.
