and make an amphitheater/park area there rather than make room for more parking.


it sounds nicer to have a park than a parking lot, but why? We have Discovery Green Downtown and Hermann Park that both have ampitheaters, I don't see why people would pass those and go out to Relaint, its not that great of an area and doesn't give you the scenic views like DT or the space like Hermann. Take where home plate is or soemthing and have a building to commorate the Dome and use the rest for parking.

Astrodome to be demolished or renovated


So 14 years after the Astros moved out, weve not really gotten anywhere. They've been talking about renovating or demolishing for years. It needs to be demolished. Its gotten in such bad shape.

And Ala, the city still owes money on it for the renovation they did to keep the Oilers there (Thanks Bud!). They put in quite a few more seats for football purposes and financed that. The city still owes about $30 million.
