“Can someone drive past that land in 20 years and say, ‘Yeah, they made the right decision?’ ” Adame said. “I think we have.”

Demolition.

Reactions on the Caller page seem mostly positive:

"That is exactly what I thought when I read the BEST NEWS ABOUT THIS WHOLE ORDEAL EVER!!!!!!"

"Can we start the demolition tomorrow??? Thank you to our City Council members and our Mayor for not just delivering lip service, but making the decisions we put them in office to make. Please do not look back, just keep leading us forward in this great City. We have a lot more work to do to revitalize this City, attract new businesses, make it a family friendly place and offer each citizen a place to be proud to call home. This is progress, out with the old and in with the new. Nice to see that old money can't buy everything. Corpus Christi...take pride."

"It is as ugly as most of Corpus Christi has become. But I will believe it when I drive down Ocean Drive and don't see that nasty eyesore."

"This council has taken a very short-sighted vote.
Too bad for all of us."

What's next for that chunk of land?
