Astroworld to reopen in Houston?

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. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
