I'm not getting why building a central, multi-use super field house is a great thing for the public. It seems like the public would be much better from some very good field houses built in more suburban areas (where most young athletes probably live) dedicated to amateur sports.

Trying to lump that into a place that shares parking and space with a professional football team, and hockey team makes it even more useless as a field house, and provides very little value for amateur ahtletes, etc.
True, but most of the the American ones I've been in and I think most that you've listed have a field house type surface if not turf. ie http://www.connorsports.com/fieldhouse
