I didn’t know about the history of the cost of the stadium or even see it as an engineering marvel growing up. Like everyone in Toronto I’ve been to Montreal dozens of times and have seen the outside of it, and like a lot of Montreal until more recently it seemed like it was in a run down area (or dated at the least) so even passing by you don’t pay that much attention. Plus inside during the Expos days seemed like a very dated structure internally. That all said, from this thread and looking at the picture it does look damn nice on the outside. The cost is absurd. Why not keep it an open stadium and renovate the internal for that cost? MLB instant ready in that case.
