ESPN weighs in on legacy of the Dome

Great perspective on Prop 2 from a just published ESPN article: "And yet the very things that make the Astrodome seem outdated – its nonretractable roof and the absence of a field under it – might also make possible its rescue. The defeated Harris County proposition sought to turn the Astrodome into a huge, flexible indoor space. No other American city can offer nine uninterrupted acres and 18 stories of enclosed height without someone telling you to keep off the grass. The Astrodome is as wide open as the future it once foretold."

Join us in calling for the Dome's reuse by filling out this online petition to Harris County Commissioners Court: http://savingplac.es/1fI0WjJ
