im quite content with the current facility and what it provides to our city and seems most others are as well. except the Flames of course.
Yes they city has recognized a new building is needed (remember, it's "Nenshi's plan" for the proposed site, according to his video during the election). The City is actively planning the entertainment district (plan being released in April) and are considering other options to develop and entertainment center without CSEC.

Currently the building does not meet the needs of the city. If there is a concert planned and it snows too much, they have to freaking cancel the concert due to safety concerns. It happened last year.
