by Stephen T. Brophy

Excitement rippled throughout the Houston area, and beyond, the national and then

to certain city building codes, laws of the State, nature and reality. But still the
Megalodome grew, assuming its curved and alluring posture, a gentle sweep of glistening
grandeur, a shape that said it wasn’t ignoring the storied past any more than it was
afraid of the gleaming future, as much a retro space corral and rocketport as the old
Astrodome had ever been, a six-shooter on one hip and a raygun in its fist.
