I don't see land size being an issue that couldnt be worked with. This area would be pretty perfect...it's already in an emerging entertainment/event district, close to a community like East Village that is starting to emerge as a real hub, and would be right next to where the City plans to put the Green Line LRT (and is walking distance to the other LRT lines as well).

The Stampede too has plenty of land to work with. I think the big issue with those locations is that someone else, not the Flames, owns the land (the Flames don't own WV either of course, but the Flames clearly seem to think it's a better way to go for them). I don't believe the Flames and Stampede board have a great working relationship either.
Just tear down Fort Calgary and build it there. Riverfront and everything!
