It appears one of my favorite San Jose landmarks will live to chomp another day.

I’m talking about the 30-foot statue of Chuck E. Cheese that sits in one of three glass-walled alcoves at the pizza chain’s location off Tully Road. Created in the early 1980s by sculptor Jeff Tritel, the foam-and-fiberglass rodent can be seen by drivers on Highway 101, as big a monument to pizza and commerce as you’ll find anywhere west of Chicago.
