It would guarantee you better tailgating in the immediate future.  The first thing to go when there is new development is parking lots.  I started going to SU only 12 years ago.  You know how much more parking was on campus at that time?  All of it is gone now due to new buildings.  The same thing would happen at the inner harbor.
 
The building of a new stadium at the inner harbor would satisfy your 30-60 year old age group, but it's not going to attract younger fans to build the fan base.  That was the chief's mistake in the mid 90's.   They made their existing fans happy, nobody new was attracted to the stadium.  Theres a few of you that want a stadium at the inner harbor, but I don't think its a majority.
 
Theres been a slight shift away from suburbia in the recent past.  I'm not saying the inner harbor is suburbia, but it has that type of feel.  Cities(even Syracuse) are seeing increases in population in recent years as the suburban flight has shifted back toward living in cities.  Any new construction should be marketed toward getting a younger crowd to build for the future.  Anyway I'm done debating this, because it's not going to happen anyway, and it shouldn't.  There's  a lot better uses for public funds to help the economy than a sports arena.  I've got all the confidence in the world the current administration on the hill knows what they are doing.
