They are also constantly developing commercial properties all around there.

Anyway, I agree that it's quiet after the game - I go elsewhere. But I don't look to hang around at the Dome after a game either.
I'm fairly certain it's a newer pic. Looks exactly how I remembered it from just over a year or so ago. The condos you're talking about are likely just above the middle top of the picture. It's obvious that they didn't intend to keep this place as "the middle of nowhere" and were hoping, and still are, to develop it more but at the time of it's groundbreaking I don't think it's a big stretch to say it was built in the middle of nowhere and the risk didn't pay off. Unfortunately right after the recession hit and the failure of the Coyotes caused the Westgate City Center to send out foreclosure notices and the ambitious project struggled as a whole.
