Astrodome Redevelopment Project

planned

The Astrodome Conservancy and LeVass Ventures have proposed a redevelopment plan to transform the long-vacant Houston Astrodome into a 12,000-seat arena with hotel rooms, restaurants, retail, and office space. The project aims to create 3,750 permanent jobs and generate $237 million in tax revenue for the region. The design includes a 300-room hotel, 170,000 sq. ft. of retail and dining, 12,000-seat arena, 150,000 sq. ft. of office space, 1,500 parking spaces, and a data center. The project is planned to be funded through a public-private partnership with $270 million in public funds for the arena and $570 million in private investment for commercial space, with up to 45% of costs potentially reimbursed via historic tax credits.
