About

What to Know

Gragg Park surrounds the historic Farnsworth and Chambers building, later known as the Gragg Building. City history records connect the building with NASA's early Houston operations and planning for Mercury flights before the move to Clear Lake. Look at the building as part of the park's story, rather than expecting a staffed space museum. Public grounds access does not establish interior touring permission. Check current parks-department arrangements if your main interest is the building or a group history visit.
