Now it is an everyday part of life. But a decade ago it was a novelty — a modern-day, bulky beanstalk growing skyward, promising riches and delivering con troversy. Domed stadiums of varying size and makeup have popped up here and there since Hous ton’s Astrodome led the way. But in the world of huge, co vered arenas, it is the Louisiana Superdome that has consistently lured the biggest attractions and meant the most to the area in which it was built. “I don’t know what would have happened if the Dome had not been here,” said Ed Nebel, director of the department of hotels, restaurants and tourism at the University of New Orleans. “But I don’t think there is any doubt that it was the cataylst for the change that was felt throughout the central business district.” What the Superdome has meant to New Orleans can best be demonstrated by a display of ‘7 don’t know what would have happened if the Dome had not been here, but I don’t think there is any doubt that it was the cataylst for the change that was felt throughout the central business distt ict. ”— Ed Nebel, director of the department of hotels, restaurants and tourism at the L di versity of New Orleans. 7:25 9:45 TWO OF A KIND 7:20-9:40 NEVER CRY WOLF 7:15 9:35 ANGEL r:50-10:00 “CHRISTINE’ 7:15-9:15 “HOT DOG” (R) :: 7:30-9:45 w “SUDDEN IMPACT’S •ilHCclligi M ill 7:00-10:00 “TERMS OF ENDEARMENT’Vo) 7:20-9:50 ‘SILKWOOD” (R) 7:15 ■i 9:45 Barbara Streisand “YENTL’Voi “before” and “after” photo graphs. Before the Dome was built, the area along Poydras Street, just a short walk westward from famed Canal Street and the French Quarter, was rife with decay. Now it is a classic model of a space-age American metropo lis — skycrapers, hotels, huge buildings under construction. And in the midst of it all sits the stadium itself, its bronze- tinted walls and overall symmet ry pleasing to the eye when viewed from afar and its size overwhelming when viewed from up close. “On balance,” said Cliff Wal lace, the building’s general man ager, “it would appear that building the Superdome is one of the wisest decisions any city or state ever made.” There were those, legions in fact, who felt not so long ago that building the Superdome was far less than wise. Its construction was approved by the voters of Louisiana in 1966, at which time building costs were estimated to be in the range of $35 million. When the stadium was opened in August of 1975, four years after con struction began and more than one year behind schedule, it had cost $163.5 million. The spiraling costs prompted lawsuits which tried to stop con struction and they were also blamed in part for defeating for mer Gov. John J. McKeithen — one of the stadium’s staunchest backers — in his bid for the U.S. Senate. There are still grumbles from politicians when funds are re quested for various mainte nance projects at the stadium.
