I live in the NW. and I have honestly always thought Fire Park would be the best option for me, my #1 priority would be accessibility.
As someone who commutes to the games, and is not that interested in the bar scene around the rink before/after the game. Its a location 90% of Calgarians could get to in 25 minutes or less even during rush hour, and the max bell station is just as close to Fire Park as the Sunalta station is to Greyhound.
But I understand that foot traffic and the entertainment district have been made priorities for this project. And Fire Park is a long way from being that. So I am resigned to the arena being put in an area of town I avoid as a commuter.
