Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 1527815, member: 716"] I do think Syverud and a number of developers envision a very different landscape between Irving and Townsend Street (now mainly parking lots and institutional buildings) in ten years, when this project will be completed. The current demarcation between West Campus, Marshall Street, and downtown will become blurred and we're going to see a lot more in the way of development to support the stadium renovation. The idea is that the stadium and associated development will create a synergy that builds on itself - more hotels, bars, restaurants, and retail. Agree that access falls somewhere between a concern or a perceived concern, and mass transit will be part of the solution. I also haven't heard anything to suggest that public money will directly fund a Dome reconstruction. We'll see. Exciting times. [/QUOTE]
