Pasadena sits directly southeast of Houston in Harris County, along the Houston Ship Channel, with approximately 151,000 residents. The city was settled in the 1890s and named by early resident John Burnett after Pasadena, California, for its similar climate and plant life. The discovery of the Spindletop oil field near Beaumont in 1901 and the subsequent development of the Gulf Coast petrochemical industry shaped the city's 20th-century economy.
Today, Pasadena and the adjacent communities along the Ship Channel host one of the largest concentrations of petrochemical and refining infrastructure in the world. LyondellBasell, Shell, and numerous mid-sized chemical producers operate plants in the area. The Battleship Texas, a dreadnought-era warship that served in both World Wars, is permanently berthed at the San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site on the boundary between Pasadena and La Porte.
The San Jacinto Monument, at 567 feet the tallest masonry column in the world, rises from the battleground park to commemorate the 1836 battle in which Texan forces under Sam Houston defeated the Mexican army under Santa Anna and secured Texas independence. San Jacinto College, founded in 1961, operates its central campus in Pasadena.
