Message: [QUOTE="xc84, post: 892092, member: 1526"] I agree with what you say but not as much if funding is in place for a new dome as discussed. I agree the site down the hill is awful...just from a size and location standpoint. I do like the idea of a retractable roof though but it is a luxury and not necessary. I agree about benches. I like them fine. I also do think a new dome could become just as symbolic as the old. Also, the War Memorial should have been replaced years ago. They should separate the memorial part from the arena next go around so they don't run up against the same opposition about demolishing the arena. In addition, if I recall correctly, there is something about the roof that makes the arena historic, etc. and that also helped keep the wrecking ball away. [/QUOTE]
