IN THE NEWS

Alamo Drafthouse had a development agreement with League City before the onset of the pandemic in early 2020. The location is currently still dirt, 17 acres of land located next to The Spot’s future location at 2502 Gulf Freeway S. Livingston said Alamo Drafthouse still plans to start construction on the new location, possibly prioritizing the construction of its restaurant and family-oriented entertainment facilities before starting construction on a cinema. www.drafthouse.com
