There's some info on Playland Park right here.

That area near Pearland has major suburban development now.

I ALMOST FORGOT THE DEMOLITION CAR RACES,STOCK CAR RACES ETC.,THAT WE WOULD

ATTEND ON FRIDAY,SATURDAY NIGHTS!!

I remember going to Playland Park in Houston in the 1950s

as a kid,fond memories!. My step-dad operated the motor boats,my brother

and I would operate all of the lock levers to let boats out

and in,that wouldn't have happened these days!.

Please share your memories.

We lived on the old Chocolate Bayou Road,and now

I've heard it is "Cullen Blvd." We were close to Pearland,8 miles

south of Holmes Rd.,near the Brazoria/Harris county line.

What is out there now??. I remember there were cemeteries

around us and not much else!.

Thanks,

Ron Hoover

Denver Co.

I JUST REMEMBER GOING AROUND THE BEND FROM OUR HOME AND HEADING TOWARDS

PEARLAND AND EVENTUALLY SEEING THE ROAD ON THE RIGHT THAT WENT TO MANVELL(MANVILL?)

DON'T KNOW IF THE ROAD CHANGED NAMES AROUND THE BEND OR NOT?

THERE WAS A ROAD THAT WENT TO THE RIGHT AT THIS BEND,THERE WERE RANCHES DOWN THIS ROAD AND IT WAS DEAD-END I BELEIVE?

THANKS All !

I once upon a time lived on Chocolate Bayou Rd. in the 1950s,our location was >>>>8miles south of Holmes Rd. near the Harris-Brazoria county line and we were near+ in the vicinity of Pearland.

Our land was near where the road made a bend on towards Pearland,my brother+I attended elementary

school there.The school bus picked us up everyday.

There were two cemeteries around our land.

I can't find it on Map-Quest,is it gone now?.

Anyone out there have any ideas about this road?.
