That is a big reason why the SE will go first, there isn't a place to put the main maintenance and storage facility in the north.
From the QA between the mayor and Administration regarding whether they ever looked at putting the facility in the north, the answer suggested to me that it would fit in Aurora. They needed 70 acres (which is quite a bit bigger than any of the existing facilities) and fits but they didn't like the loss of space from the TOD. Though with an uncertain date on when the LRT will reach 96th Ave, I question how much development they can expect at Aurora.
