102	Beverly Harris	The Dome remains an excellent design, pleasing to the eye (unlike Reliant) and still has a lot of potential. Please do not destroy it. Instead, embrace it as a fine emblem of Houston, which it certainly is.
103	Ann Hodges	This wonderful structure - indeed, one of the "wonders of the world" - did so much to illuminate Houston's image as the can-do city , and to launch a whole new era of stadium clones all over the world. Surely, it must be preserved - not just as a "Houston treasure" for all of us who helped build it and cherish the memories it holds, but for the pride of generations of Houstonians to come, and for all those who come here from everywhere to see where it all began.. We must not destroy our own past; we must save the Astrodome.

110	Bridget Lois Jensen	Houston is always trying to define its image, which is a difficult task, but the Astrodome is one of the few images that can be positively connnected to the city. People who take pride in Houston want to preserve the Astrodome.
111	Susan Gallivan	The Astrodome has national historical significance. Please do not be short-sighted in your decision making.

115	gwen syzdek	This edifice is a symbol of Houston. It was one of the seven wonders of the world; a structural engineering milestone. We must stop destroying our history - keep the Astrodome for Houston.
116	Christina Gonzalez	I truly believe that the Astrodome should be kept as a Historic Place since you have already torn down Astroworld. You are destorying the history of this city away.
117	Tom Patton
118	Connie Klingbeil	Save the Astrodome!!!
119	Rebecca Soots	Does everything have to be about building new? Where will the history and legacy of Houston be for our heritage?
120	Leslie Padilla
121	Angela Lesser	I am a native Houstonian and grew up by Hobby Airport. The Dome is a national treasure and we are proud of it and should show it off! Attract tourist dollars!
122	Sophie Stenis	Let's have a sense of history and preserve this landmark. I would not want to see it go the way of The Shamrock Hotel.
123	Anonymous	Save the Dome! It represents Houston - then AND now!
124	Anonymous	Please preserve the Astrodome!
125	Jennifer W. Overton	I grew up watching events in the Astrodome and think it is an important part of Houston's (and my) history. Please don't tear it down!!!
126	Anonymous	I have watched the dome constructed and became a landmark of Houston. As a resident and tax payer of Harris County, I hereby ssubmit my partition TO SAVE THE DOME. Thank you for hearing our voice.
127	Kathryn Tardy	As an important part of Houston's history and of America's also, the Astrodome needs to be preserved!!!
128	Ann S. Phillips
129	Holly Miller	There are two many functions that could still be held in the Dome. We destroy so much of Houston and our heritage. The things that made us great. Why is it always ok to get rid of something just because it is older. That doesn't make it right. Preserving what is great about Houston is.
130	Janet Spencer	Can we please save some of our history!
131	Kelli Walsh	This dome had a huge part in my family history. My dad asked my mom to marry him at an Astros baseball game in 1967. Save the dome. It's a landmark. Don't tear it down for more parking, hotels and other c@@@.
132	Royce Rufila
133	Kathy Haun
134	Andi Maceo	Please keep the Astrodome in place, it is an important part of not only our local history, but as the first domed stadium, it is an important part of sports history in the United States.

138	Jason Spence	Hindsite is always 20-20, I hear all the time the memories of the old Colt 45's stadium and the shame it was torn down. I was not living in Houston when the Astrodome was torn down, and it is not the same driving by its old location. It would be a sad day in Houston if we cannot drive by and see the "Eighth Wonder of the World".
139	Kristin Fagan
140	Kathlyn Blanchard
141	Rudy Del Bosque II	Houston continues to struggle on finding a balance between growth and preservation as it tries defining its self as a great place to call home. With new projects emerging every year, the city falls short in maintaining a sense of identity by failing to preserve what has defined Houston to date.
142	Debra Spence	My dad worked at the Astrodome for years. It would be ashamed to tear it down. Use it for something that would benefit the city and make that complex so very unique. Debra Spence
143	Mindi Sternblitz
144	Charles Donovan	My father helped build the astrodome I don't want it torn down.

148	Kari Banks	when we legalize gambling we need to open it up as a casino..... that would bring alot of extra dollars to our city and state.
149	Anonymous	Houston's past deserves a place in its future. The Astrodome represents historical significance to this city that warrants preservation, restoration and reuse.
