What all this interest really shows, to me, is how much could happen in this city if we didn't have idiotic, anti-urban zoning. There's a WHOLE DOWNTOWN's worth of underused industrial buildings and strip malls in this immediate area, room for soccer stadiums and hotels and apartment towers and office buildings all, but instead we're just going to allow developers to squabble over this one lot? This is a big city now and we need to start thinking big.

That's been my point this whole time. If this MU is actually going to happen, if it doesn't happen at McKalla it'll just happen down the street. There's the whole of the NBG.
So might as well do the stadium at McKalla and get both.
