152Danielle Aguilar
Tear that eyesore down!
153George Gomez
Unless the "friends of the coliseum" are going to pay to keep it nice, then just tear it down and build a real memorial. I dont know why Vets would want a old decaying building as a memorial to them
154KRISSY SCOON
please tear it down. we need to update our city. this has gone on long enough.
155Haydee Gonzalez
Tear it down. What great "friends" the coliseum has, they did a great job keeping so nice and beautiful all these years.
156Jasen E. Jorgensen

Tear the hut down!!! Clower let it go.
159Melissa Brooks
As an Australian living in Corpus, I am amazed how under utilized your beautiful waterfront is. This building has to go, re-create a fabulous space, something to bring people to the waterfront... PLEASE. Enough is Enough!
160Michael Leal
Please just tear it down and do something nice with the site. This has gone on way too long.

Tear that eyesore down...as a military wife that building is in NO WAY a memorial. The "friends of the coliseum" need to get a life and figure out something else to do.
163Karen Tootle
Tear it down.
164Aaron Cano

165Charles Nusberger
166Amanda Smith
Move the WWII plaque, tear it down. Support the economic growth of the city and eliminate the stagnant!
167Phillip Gonzalez
We have other things to embrace as part of corpus christi, the Coliseum doesnt need to be one of them.

Buildings are not meant to last forever. We build, we demolish, we build again! Who thought Yankee Stadium would be torn down? Tear it down. Build a Memorial that is worthy.
170Chad Wilson
If they want to save it, then they need to put up the full cost of restoration and maintenance for ten years + up front, or back off!
171Casey Sheriff
We should have progress and growth like every other city in this state.
172Trisha H
Tear this monstrosity down already. If it was still in decent condition I could understand keeping it but it's NOT so just GET RID OF IT!
173Juan Ricardo Lopez
The coliseum had a good run, but it is time to move on. We are not destroying the memories, just the building. To move foward, you must first let go. We as a community will never forget this landmark, but if this fighting does'nt stop...memories change?
174Cissy Beasley
There is no reason for Corpus Christi to be so far behind other cities' progress, especially given our amazing and unique bayfront location. The potential is unlimited; tearing down this monstrosity will help set the city free to move forward.
175Stephen Wincelowicz
Tear it down, or move to Austin.
176Matthew Weatherston
take a picture of it and put it in a museum. get the building off our bayfront.
177Compromise is Possible
I emailed the mayor and he replied that he is open to some kind of compromise on the coliseum but has been frustrated in his efforts to bring the opposing sides together. Truly, he just wants progress on this and not stagnation. My opinion is that part of the roof and not all of the roof should be saved. But that's jus...t my suggestion. I think a very nice NEW addition to the skyline could be created from PART of the EXISTING structure. I think, if done with care and quality in mind, it could be a very positive outcome. Saving the whole roof strikes me as a permanent circus tent, while saving only a section would create a space that mixes outdoor plaza and covered space.

I am a veteran along with 10 other family members from WWI to Iraq and feel this is not the proper representation of a memorial!! Buildings come and go, please, lets put something up we can all enjoy!!!
180Bryan Roschetzky
TEAR DOWN ANYTHING IN CORPUS THAT LOOKS LIKE CRAP!

THIS IS A GREAT START! BUT IT CANT STOP HERE! KEEP MAKING CORPUS LOOK BETTER!!!!!
181Carol Walther
The coliseum is a symbol of Corpus Christi's inability to make progress. Let's move forward by tearing it down and replacing it with something that will make our bayfront beautiful
182Karen Weatherston
Tear this eyesore down! The city, like us cannot spend money they don't have! Can anybody say Nueces County Courthouse?!
183Carol Boyer
Auction off the seats to all the fans that want to keep it!!! Then they can keep a piece of it near and dear to them.
184Melinda Hale
So sick of Corpus holding on the past, It's time to tear down that eyesore!!! It's old, ugly, & it's just sitting there!! Time to more on Corpus Christi!!!
185Nancy H
The city is cutting the budget & city jobs & this mess is costing the city way too much money & for what? Tear the eyesore down. My husband is a veteran & is not honored by this rotting building. It is a dishonor to the vets & to the city. Tear it down!!!
186Cynthia Duenas
This building is a sad representation of those who served their country. Tear it down and remove the eyesore from the bayfront. Move forward Corpus quit living in the past its gone. Something more edifying is much better than this disgrace of a building.
187Rick C
Having served in the USN, I find it insulting these morons want to save this building. As soon as I find what businesses they are associated with I will do my best to boycott them to the point they move out of the state
