This is ideal anyways.
Pull out the seats for CFL/MLS games for better sight lines. Hide them for public use days.

Really surprised that they're able to do all this with no road realignment.

I would be willing to bet there will be quite a few bar/pubs that will be opening near the facility.

2) We're going to need some pedestrian bridges!

There will be bars and restaurants...," says King. "But we're not going to Red Mile this ... You can live there.
The project is on par with something you would see in New York, London, or Paris. People will visit Calgary to see it.

It can alternatively be used as a flotation device.
Think of it as a floating Superdome.

Clearing some things up:
Roof is fixed not retractable the rectractable part of the Powerpoint was pointing to lower bowl seating in the stadium.
The retractable portion is the lower bowl seating in the FILEDHOUSE which would come out over the track for Stamps games and or possible soccer events.
