CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — There is a new addition outside Kingsville City Hall.
Bronze statues depicting the city's namesake Captain Richard King and his wife Henrietta Chamberlain King were unveiled to the public. Much of present-day Kingsville sits on land donated by the Captain and his wife.
"I'm 89 years old. So I have known a lot of years to know all the family(and) I've worked with them," Kingsville resident Maggier Salinas said. "I think what they've done for Kingsville has been tremendous and today was a great historic moment."
The statues were created by a Colorado artist named Roberto Garcia Jr.
