That McMahon area rendering is just bizarre. Not that I hate every idea, but it looks like something I could have drawn in sketchup in a couple of hours...and in so doing I think I would have at least realized some shortcomings like parking. The practice field and facility seem to really fight against the area's topography, too. Making a practice field with a few thousand seats for Dinos games and B-level soccer might be neat.
The 6500 seat arena makes me wonder if this wasn't actually just mocked up to relate to the Olympics, and make it seem like a there was at least an early proposal? I suppose anyone who has never seen Sketchup before might think it is more professional than it is?
