Summary
Houston’s beloved Southeast Lions football team faces a heartbreaking loss as their 30-year home at Grimes Park is set to be demolished for a $210 million career tech hub. While the district argues the site’s size and accessibility make it perfect for the Southside Launchpad — opening in 2028 — coaches and locals are furious, pointing to recent taxpayer-funded renovations and questioning why vacant school land wasn’t used instead. City officials scramble to find a new field for the youth team, but the emotional toll on a community that’s watched these kids grow up is undeniable.
