Agreed. In isolation this is great news. But in the bigger picture of the Common it is a little concerning. It actually gives a fair bit of strength to the arguments of the Friends of the Common. When the temporary stadium was proposed there were a lot of warnings from the FotC that eventually they'd be back for something permanent, and the Common would continue to be slowly eaten away. And here we are.
