I'm hearing good rumors that Astroworld (or some Six Flags theme park) might reopen in Harris County.
Don't know if this is true or not, but I sure hope so. This city needs a theme park of its own. You think Houstonians are up for a drive to Arlington for Six Flags Over Texas? That's about to happen as fast as a Dallas vacation.
As I've blogged before, if there is anyone in this town who might make a move to open a new park (outside of Six Flags) it could be Tillman Fertitta. This guy has a flair for development. Have you seen what he's done with Kemah and Galveston? I knew this guy was big time, but really got a clue when I went to Disney World's Animal Kingdom and saw a Rainforest Cafe out front. I bet Fertitta has spent time there taking notes.
