The city of Pasadena, Texas today just ain't the same Pasadena that it was back in the 1970s - 1980s. Many of Pasadena's most iconic buildings and greatest businesses and institutions are long gone now, including:
* The Pasadena bank building
* Pasadena Town Square Mall
* Pasadena Plaza
* The Captain Theater
* Gilley's
* Wyatt's Cafeteria
* Monterey House
* Sears
* Golf Land
And many others.
Which of these Pasadena businesses do you miss the most?
What other now gone businesses would you add to this list?
