  1. .. More broadly demonstrates the madness government bureaucrats impose on the world.
  2. The EADO cap and park/development will happen. You can take it to the bank.
  3. Couldn’t she already have done that on United’s existing flights from Newark to Nice?
  4. ... A lot more "stuff", more "bells and whistles" and the examples are (allegedly) more restrooms and concessions in one stadium. And still we wait...
  5. Houston Airports announced today that the new Terminal D West pier will open October 22. The new international central processor is set to be completed in two phases in winter 2025 and summer 2025. United Airlines will move its Terminal E operations to the new ICP in phase one (winter/1st Q 2025) and the international airlines will move to the ICP in phase two (summer 2025).
  6. Are those “culverts” for rainwater detention/retention (I can never remember the difference)?
  7. Yeah. Bad writing. Where did I put my “surprise” face? The current leases expire at the stated times.
  8. More info regarding NRG's alleged capacity shortfall: The following 9 NFL teams have stadiums under construction or planned, or renovations being planned. Of them, only Charlotte will end up with a stadium with a larger capacity than NRG (and Charlotte's is already one of the seven that is larger than NRG). Arrowhead Stadium in KC is currently larger than NRG - both the filed renovation proposal and new stadium proposals appear to be taking them in the direction of being smaller in capacity than NRG. If capacity greater than NRG's was an important feature, surely some of these projects would be aiming for greater capacity. Buffalo new Highmark Stadium Nashville new stadium Chicago Jacksonville (massive renovations) Cleveland (new or renovated) Cincinnati (renovations) Baltimore (renovations) Charlotte (renovations) Kansas City (still unknown)
  9. I remain all ears (and eyes) for the list or even a single example of amenities that NRG Stadium supposedly lacks. By the way, we were also told above that NRG Stadium lacks capacity to be competitive big-events world. FWIW, among the 30 current NFL Stadiums, NRG has the 8th largest seating capacity. We were told that NRG is "easily a class below the newer stadiums in Los Angeles, Dallas, Vegas, Minnesota and Atlanta" and that NRG lacks a lot in regards to amenities, capacity and game day experience compared to these newer stadium. And yet we stilll have not heard of a single amenity that NRG lack; NRG has a larger capacity than all of those except Dallas, and, as mentioned above, the parties are working on plans for the area around the stadium.
  10. Hence the current discussions among the parties (Rodeo, Texans, HCSCA) regarding NRG Park, and apparent lack of any interest by anyone in building a new stadium.
  11. And still we wait for anyone to show us a single amenity or other specific example of "game-day experience" that NRG Stadium lacks . . .
  12. That’s exactly the kind of answer I get every time, which, with respect, tells us nothing, except that some stadiums have slightly higher capacity (and a higher capacity does not appear to be a requirement or even much of a plus for most of the big-time events we are going for (and routinely getting)) What amenities is NRG Stadium missing? What is missing from our game day experience?
  13. I've asked this question a numerous times of times of people who claim NRG is far behind the likes of Dallas, Atlanta, Minnesota etc, and have never gotten an answer. What is it that NRG Stadium lacks that puts it behind these other stadiums?
  14. Large floor plates would typically make a building less convertible, not more. (What's more important is the shape/dimensions - how deep is the space between core and windows.
  15. Please stop spreading your political hate through the entire forum.
