    FYI - probably one of the best websites for Astroworld information is: http://www.sixflagshouston.com/ ...it has everything you want to know - and then some!

    My wife and I had our rehersal dinner at the Petroleum Club (back in '95). While it is somewhat dated, it's still a beautiful place with some of the best views of Houston. Because of this personal connection with the building - I voted 'Love it'.

    As a native Houstonian (born in 1964) - I have many fond memories of Astroworld. Yeah, the park did go downhill in it's final years - but for me - it was always magical. FYI - I think the best and most informed explanation as to why Astroworld was closed can be found here: http://www.saveastroworld.com/

    Interesting discussion. ...but jeez, now I know why this thread is 33 pages long.

    Interesting article - give a very optomistic picture of downtown development: Apartment occupancy in downtown is 89 percent, according to data gathered in the spring by Central Houston, a group that promotes downtown revitalization. That's up from 83 percent the year before. With the top-class office vacancy rate now at less than 10 percent, developers are moving forward with residential projects to capture some of the anticipated demand. Another developer is proposing to buy and renovate the long vacant Texaco Building with more than 400 residential units.
