Well, nothing is set until construction actually begins, but the recommended site for the Athlete's Village is in East Victoria Park where the Calgary Transit garage is now.
Obviously, that would mean relocating the transit garage. I don't know if the demolition and site clean-up costs are included in the ~$600 million or not. That area is already included for residential redevelopment in the new CMLC Rivers District concept.
One advantage of that space is that the city already owns it, so it wouldn't have to be purchased.
