I think the extension of 249 from Houston will be the true catalyst for growth in the region. If BCS gets out of its own way they can market that you can have your business in a college town with cheap work force with access to an international airport in under 1 hour.
That will be a huge selling point and a game changer.
We also need to be hopeful that places like Century Square and Atlas create destination town centers that attracts more people.
Right now College Station is essentially a suburb without a downtown and Bryan isnt desirable (outside of a Miramont or Traditions).
You do realize that Atlas is in Bryan right? So is the Heath Science Center, RELLIS, etc. Bryan is growing and is desirable but some people that live south of Bryan refuse to believe that it is so. Don't forget that the city of Bryan has been on several of the fastest growing cities list for the past few years.
When you get the time, why don't you come ride around and see all the changes happening in Bryan.
Back on subject.
A mini zoo, theme park, water park, Main Event are all the types of places that are needed here.
Santa's wonderland could be so much more then a seasonal destination. I think I remember some years in the past that they tried to do a year round western themed destination thing.
