A senior living center in the area has partially reopened. The Meridian was previously closed due to a water pipe burst. This incident occurred over a year ago, in July 2025, and resulted in the displacement of residents and staff.

Residents and staff have now returned to the facility and marked the occasion with a celebratory dinner. The dinner took place on a Thursday and was held to commemorate their return to The Meridian. Further details about the reopening and the celebratory dinner can be found in the Galveston County Daily News.

The newspaper reported on the event and the return of residents and staff to the senior living center.
