Property Overview

2021 Strand – JD Rogers Building and Trolley Station – Built 1894
17,824 square foot two story Event Center, Ballroom, Restaurant, Patio, and Balcony. J.D. Rogers ordered this large building constructed as an investment that housed a wholesale feed company and liquor distributor in 1894. Mr. Rogers was in both the banking and cotton businesses. As such, he was a Director and President of the Merchants’ Fire Insurance Company, and was the senior member of the John D. Rogers & Co. firm. The Rogers building has a 1,500 square foot exterior balcony on the second floor that opens to the second floor ballroom of 9,000 square feet, both of which serve many special events including Mardi Gras and many weddings throughout the year. This property, as well as the adjacent Nichols Building, was renovated in the early 1980s by a prominent Austin, Texas architect, and later owned by influential Houston international businessman Ross Dinyari.

2015 Strand - Ebenezer Nichols Home – Built 1857
11,100 square foot 3 story retail and residential lofts. This three story property, the oldest on The Strand, was originally home to Colonel Ebenezer Nichols and his family. The “Galveston Rifles”, a Confederate militia group, housed their arms on the third floor and trained in front, on The Strand. E.B. Nichols was the financial agent for the Committee on Public Safety, an officer of the Galveston Brazos Navigation Company, and a private banker. The first floor of the Nichols Building now has one retail space, and a large, private office, while the second floor is fitted with four separate suites, a large common area, a laundry, and kitchen. The third floor has two very large exquisite lofts separated by a large library, ideal for upscale rentals or as a private residence of the owner. These two lofts each have two baths, and a kitchen. One overlooks The Strand.

210 21st Street - JW Jockusch Building – Built 1866
17,071 square foot three story retail and event spaces. This corner situated building was the first constructed on Galveston Island after the Civil War, and was built by Mr. J. W. Jockusch, a prominent citizen and businessman of Galveston. Originally, it was the site of a carriage manufacturing company. In the 1920s it was owned by the Maceo interests, another highly prominent name in the history of Galveston, that controlled much of the illegal gambling on the Island. One event room on the second floor still holds an original sign, “Maceo Fish and Oyster Company”, and is referred to as “The Maceo Bakery”, as it was at one time also home to a bakery that served all of the many Maceo facilities. The first floor is now occupied by retail stores, the second floor is home to two large event rooms, and the third highly original to 1866, and ready for conversion into lofts, or one large single residence for the owner. The building is wrapped by two streets, “The Strand” and “21st”, and fitted with a 2,500 square foot exterior balcony, perfect for viewing of Mardi Gras and other large scale events, and accessible to both of the two event rooms, “The Buccaneer Room”, and “The Maceo Bakery”.



Built in 1857, 1866, and 1894, these three historic mixed use buildings on Strand at 21st have stood the test of time, all surviving the Hurricane of 1900 (and all since then). Remodeled, repurposed, and ready for a new owner, they include 45,995 interior square feet, plus patios and the largest balcony by area in Galveston.
The current owners have used one building for their personal living and office space and while there are multiple retail and restaurant tenants in all other areas, there are vacant and underutilized spaces as well. Opportunity to maximize potential is waiting for an investor/owner who can see the possibilities. Check out the specs on each of these three buildings by following the links below.

All three properties are being sold together as a portfolio and are co-joined. Each is accessible, through the interior, to the other two. Each building has several exterior entry/exists, and each individual entity is separately metered for electricity utilities.

How do I access a private listing?
Please contact the broker directly with the information provided on the listing. Once the broker approves your credentials he will make the information public to you.
How can I contact the broker
We strongly encourage to message the broker through our portal by clicking on the “Envelope” icon next to the brokers photo on the property page. We’ve found brokers response time is much quicker via our messaging portal than phone as brokers are always on the go.
What is the difference between Tier 1 & Tier 2 in the Due Diligence Vault?
Documents that are placed in a Tier-1 Due Diligence vault require the execution of a Confidentiality Agreement (“CA”) for access.
