I am a life long Houstonian. I grew up going to the Dome with my family and friends. I don’t want to see it torn down, but I also hate to see it in its current state. I do not have any faith in our City to do what they need to to really preserve it. Every administration just keeps passing the buck to the next dumb S/DOB to have to “deal” with it. All while it cost us millions of dollars per year to pay for the “upkeep”. I think it would be pretty cool to pull all of the stuff out of the stadium (seats, asbestos, concrete, etc.), and do their best to keep the skeleton of the dome in place and turn it into a green space/concert spot etc. Think of the Coliseum. I think it would provide a sentimental shell of the old stadium, but not in its current sad state. *** I posted this with out reading all of the posts, but I am thinking the same thing many of you guys are. I really like the idea of keeping the superstructure in place. This is by far the most compelling and feasible idea I have heard since all of this talk began.

I am having lunch at the Panera in MC Mall. It looks like they are FINALLY continuing the construction on the bridge, maybe they will work on finishing the rest of it up.

Wow that is so horrible. I hope those guys got what is comming to them.

I think this thing is owned my the Magic Johnson Group and they haven't been the best at taking care of the property. There used to be a bunch of retail, but when a lot of them closed I think due to lack of quality customers. FYI The land behind the Marque is going to be a Wallmat.

Is Chick Fil A going in here? Are they one of the lease pendings?

anymore updates as to who is going in here?

I am disapointed that BW3's is gone, but so very stoked about Freebirds. I would like to see something that is a little uniqe to Houston, like a Buffalo Cafe' or something like an Empire come out to the west side. I wonder what is going to happen with the old Toys R' Us.
