It’s called the Ike Dike, and unless you live along the Galveston coastline, chances are you probably haven t heard of it. If you think the Texas/Mexico border wall is expensive, hold on to your hats. The Ike Dike will cost upwards of $26 billion dollars and it’s no longer considered optional. Hurricane Ike made landfall in 2008, with seawater flooding downtown Galveston. Water levels climbed to nearly 8 feet in some homes and the storm claimed at least 15 people that night on the Bolivar Peninsula, destroying some 3,600 homes there. The Ike Dike is the brainchild of Bill Merrel, a resident of Galveston, who came up with the concept as he sat out the hurricane with his family on the second floor of their home while the entire ground floor was flooded.
