The mention of a convention center attached is a good idea.
I know that part of the economic model for Century Link field in Seattle was the large convention center that is attached to it. Granted that the NFL revenue would make the stadium worth while to build regardless, but when I took the tour there, it was heavily emphasized that the convention center helps out a lot. They have something like 480 events per year in the convention center.
