A 1000 foot by 700 foot footprint for the stadium would be disastrous in downtown. An absolute deadzone 99% of the time.It's kind of funny, back in 2011 everyone thought the arena was in a great location and the new stadium was in a bad one. Now it's the other way around.
With all the troubles happening around downtown, there have been plenty of new residential buildings being constructed over the past decade. Many are happening as we speak. And people keep moving in. ie. the new tallest in Winnipeg is mostly occupied.
The arena and stadium are both in ideal locations given their respective usage.
