Apparently, not only will the Saddledome be torn down, but so will the Corral and the entire BMO Centre and the Casino. Good news though, for some reason, the Enoch Sales house will be rebuilt and put in the middle of the BMO Centre land. Unfortunately, it looks like it will be rebuilt to the state it was in before it burned down.
Of course, this also ignores the fact that the new arena (and the BMO Centre expansion) will become a significant part of the skyline before the Saddledome is demolished.

Some arenas aren’t part of the skyline at all and are more meant to blend in. I wouldn’t hate that personally. I don’t know the plan here but can’t really argue that the Dome has been an iconic feature of the skyline that will be hard to be replaced.
