...? I'm trying to understand what you are saying but I don't get it.

Property values are driven by demand for the land surrounding a development.

If you build a high value/high demand property then surrounding values will go up.

Building an arena downtown won't have a negative effect on the rest of the city...except fo rmaybe Northlands and that's because it's already subsidized I believe.
