I've always known that Judge Roy Hofeinz had an apartment built for himself when the Dome was constructed. I had always assumed that it was something simple like a room with a sleeper sofa. Boy, was I wrong!

Farewell To An Odd Dome Home
Judge Hofheinz's private Astrodome quarters will soon be just a gaudy memory
Judge Hofheinz's private Astrodome quarters will soon be - 03.14.88 - SI Vault
That's 10,400 square feet!
I also found a website with great pics.

Here is the view from Judge Hofheinz's pool table.
Below is a pic my mom took on Youth Soccer Day in 1979 (I'm one of the kids on the field). If you look just below the Coke sign to the right, you can see the diamond shaped window in the previous pic.
Oh, Judge Hofheinz also had a Presidential Suite built for LBJ. The life of a public servant!
