Yeah they're spending an absurd number like 870 million to dismantle the roof. The demo of the Big D'oh is outrageously high because it's pre-stressed concrete so if they use a wrecking ball and release the potential energy pieces could be launched unsafe distances. The zoo and metro station nearby rule out explosives. Of course this is a Quebec Engineering firm doing the estimate and one that shut down due to allegations of misusing funds.
If they ever try to build a new stadium there, the cost overruns will be absolutely wild.
