I don't want to bash on you directly. but after dozens of pages of discussion on this topic, a bunch of accurate, albeit amateur overlays on google maps showing that the existing buildings could fit in these spaces. We should know,
Greyhound/GLS Chev, A large percentage of people seem to think that is where it is going, but they would have to displace tenants.
The Vic Park Bus Barns, but there is no indication Calgary Transit is willing to give up the land. And its a long walk from the train
The Big4 is an option for only a hockey rink, It seems unlikely the Stampede would redevelop enough to fit a football Stadium on the south end of the grounds.
The North end of the Stampede grounds could be an option, but for some reason it seems like the Flames will try to get off Stampede park
Fire Park, but they would have to tear down occupied warehouses (that are owned by flames ownership), and the flames have stated it would be downtown.
Foothills Park, but it isn't downtown, the would need to re-draw some plans the city has, and where would the Stamps play for a year? And it does not address the on going noise issue with Varsity residents
And I guess some people think, Balzac, De Winton, or Bears Paw are Options
