Check the link below. Looking north from downtown, and into the future, picture the Robin Hood mill and CP rail line (future LRT line) between the arena and football stadium. Saskatoon will probably get a CFL team before we get a NHL team. And i'm not saying include a football stadium in all this, but just keep in mind what you want this city to look like 20, 30, 50 years from now. Take advantage of our hours of sunshine and fill the arena roof with solar panels. Utilize the hydro thermal energy beneath us for heating. Why build on the smallest possible footprint in the Central Business District when we have room to the north.
