Guys how's this even a debate? Calgary has a massive geographical footprint, so large that people in the SE probably don't even know anyone in the NW and vice-versa.
If you want a huge gathering space you have to keep it central and it HAS to have mass transit connected. Lets also remember the city is dying to increase their downtown tax revenue so they don't have to keep on stiffing homeowners everywhere else.
With or without the Flames the City of Calgary needs to bring a big project downtown and get some money injected back into the area before it goes all Detroit on them.
