There's too much opportunity in the West Village for development in conjunction with an Olympic bid. They will fight as hard as they can for their original location. While I can certainly see the merit in Plan B, money will ultimately triumph here.
Remember all those condos and buildings in KK's original proposal?
What do the Olympics need? Athletes village. Convention Centre. Global broadcast centre. Awards plaza, etc
You can't build all that on the Stampede grounds, nor would Flames ownership ever want to.
