The city will get zero revenue. The talk of residences and condos is all speculation that studies have revealed are not guarenteed by building an arena.

4) again, we dont know that. KK said it but I havent seen a document. Also this doesnt take into account what that land would be used for but for the arena. http://www.realestateforums.com/ref/...thias_tita.pdf
AND ONCE MORE the Flames haven't said they are paying for the remediation! |
You need some reading comprehension. I said Calgary considers itself world class, time to act like it. Of course the city wants to develop it...but when the province covers you for indemnity on the creosote it scares EVERYONE away unless your billionaire rich like the Flames owners. There's a reason some of the most valuable land in the city has sat grotesquely underutilized for decades.
Its a proposal and a vision. Not some RFP/technical document.
