-Nice and long
-Looks similar to a barn to keep with our stampede theme
-Ice cold inside, so although it wil be unbearable to sit in, the ice shouldn't be an issue
-Nice plain colours, with two....silver rectangle thingies for added asthetics
-lightposts for parking lot
-couldn't have possibly cost more than $50 000 to build, so no taxpayer money needed

Looks good, that should keep the lowest common denominator, populist alderman happy.
Not using public money because the owners and players of a team will stand to be more profitable, is a silly, petty, misery loves company confirming reason. If someone didn't want to use public money because they believe in a better use then that's different. But who cares if NHL owners are richer, if that's the best use for funds then you allocate in that way. People make money personally as a result of how public funds are used all the time.
