Despite disuse after the construction of Reliant Stadium next door, the Astrodome still stands as an architectural wonder. Hopefully a new use will be found for it, so that it isn't demolished to pave the way for another parking lot. This is a sentimental highlight in Houston. More

Had to see it. We've all heard about it. New Reliant Stadium is right beside it. Walked up to the iron gates and peered through to see the orange seats.
