Name: Anonymous on Jul 23, 2006Comments: There are tons of B&N's around Houston, but only one 3 Brothers Bakery, only one River Oaks Theatre, etc. There's lots of undeveloped land just down the street...perfect for an overpriced chain bookstore! I certainly won't be patronizing that store if it becomes a reality in the place of these Houston landmarks!Flag

Name: Katya Horner on Jul 23, 2006Comments: It's a shame that no landmark in the city of Houston is considered sacred. Weingarten's decision to tear down a Houston institution (or two...or three!) is an embarrassment. I'll protest by boycotting Weingarten Realty tenants.Flag

Name: Marilyn Balke-Lowry on Jul 23, 2006Comments: For those of us who are native Houstonians, watching our many theaters razed to build skyscrapers has been heartbreaking. Is there no memory that is sacred The River Oaks and Alabama Theaters are the last vestige of Houston moviegoers history. Stop this outrageous mistake from taking place in our city!Flag

Name: Anonymous on Jul 23, 2006Comments: This is an insanely bad idea that will put one more reason on the list for interesting, creative, money-spending people in Houston to leave the city for ANYWHERE ELSE. We won't let you tear down this beloved place without a fight.Flag

Name: Lee Alexander on Jul 23, 2006Comments: Three generations of Houstonians have memories attached to that theater. I know this petition won't move you enough to stop what you plan to do - but it's still a shame that you're doing it. I hope your dignity was worth all the money you expect to gain from this move. -Lee Alexander alexandersongs.comFlag

Name: Kenneth Gramann on Jul 23, 2006Comments: I am a native Houstonian and grew up in out out of the area surrounding the River Oaks Theater, including being a graduate of St. Thomas H.S. The loss of the theater and it's surroundings would be a great setback to the area. It's history is irreplacable and invaluable. Keep the theater and the complex.Flag

Name: Kerry Goelzer on Jul 23, 2006Comments: Houston is just now coming into its own as a cool, livable city. Careful consideration of preservation of existing urban spaces and buildings (such as the River Oaks Shopping Center entry from Kirby, the River Oaks Theater, and the Bookstop Building) is critical to maintain this momentum!Flag
