The more time passes from this the more I'm unsure of the Fieldhouse/Stamps stadium portion and I feel like trying to cram that all together is ruining this. While it would be great to have them all together, the site is just too tight imo. Additionally, if the fieldhouse is going to be also used as a place for amateur sports (which would happen a lot more than 9 Stamps games) is the West Village not a pretty poor place for it? Especially if the parking situation stays as it appears it will.

If the Flames are married to the idea of the West Village, maybe they should start thinking about just an arena. Obviously that breaks their whole financing model, and doesn't start the cleanup of the WV, which likely means we're back to an alternate site or staying on the Stampede Grounds. I just think that the Fieldhouse idea will suffer the most from this proposal.
