The Cogswell St interchange has also been mentioned but dismissed as too small. Is it necessary to replace all the former streets? How about one, one way street that runs the perimeter of the whole area?

The Wanderers Ground would be large enough and I really like that location. The stadium could be made to look small from street level by having it partially sunken and surrounded by ground berms like the Yale Bowl. But I wonder if there would be a lot of opposition?
PS: People could park downtown and there could be a quick shuttle loop (sports events usually don't occur during business hours when car lots would be filled). After the game, many people would just walk back to their cars since it is much easier walking down the hills than up.
