HOUSTON (KTRK) -- On January 31, 1961, Harris County voters approved a general
bond issue of $22 million to build the Astrodome.

About a year later, ground was broken for the new stadium. Voters had to dip
into their pockets one more time and approve another $9 million in bonds to
complete the project.

Some great moments in the Astrodome



The total price tag for the dome was $20 million, but the overall project,
including streets, bridges and storms sewers was $40 million.

Here's a short clip of film produced by the Houston Sports Association about
construction of the Harris County Domed Stadium.
