Doyle Raizner represents the historic Galveston Balinese Room in suit against Texas Windstorm Insurance Association
Like many other homes and businesses, the Balinese Room was destroyed during Hurricane Ike. Build on a 600 foot pier at 21st Street and Seawall in Galveston, the Balinese Room over its lifetime hosted such greats as Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope, Jack Benny – and generations of Galvestonians. It survived Hurricanes Carla and Alicia, and was vacant for nearly 20 years before being restored by Scott Arnold and his Arnold Properties, Inc. in 2001. All that remains today are the pilings shown on the photograph below – and the memories of those who participated in its history. Unfortunately, TWIA has not honored its contract to fairly and reasonably protect the financial, historic and cultural value of this important part of Galveston history.
