Texas Roadhouse was open when I was in Branson this week. It is out by Target next to the Pizza Hut/Wing Street. The parking lot was full on Wednesday evening, and the overflow was in the Home Depot lot. Westgate finally took down the Waterpark coming soon sign. Drafts has been for lease all year. Several motels on SOTH Expressway have changed names. The Hampton Inn on the strip has been closed for awhile due to remodeling. The Hilton Spark/former Barrington that had the explosion is still closed but the street in front of it has reopened.
