At the southern tip of Harris County between the cities of Houston and Galveston, Nassau Bay stands as a city built on a "culture of technology and innovation". That's some claim. But considering this is the town that NASA built, there's probably more than a kernel of truth to it. Built at the front gate of NASAs Johnson Space Center, Nassau City was the brainchild of some enterprising Houston businessmen who conceived a state of the art community for the growing JSC workforce. With the help of some local ranchers they broke ground in 1962. Today Nassau Bay is a unique community of over 4,000.
