I was in favor of Windsor stadium also. The renders looked great. The city passed on it due to lack of parking and land since their intention is to build a multi field Soccer complex at McHugh park. Also, Tecumseh United soccer club is involved so the location is fitting for them.
This whole vision for the WFCU centre and area that Eddie Francis sold us never came to fruition. The hotels and major franchises never came. We are basically building a sporting destination in the middle of a neighbourhood with no businesses in the immediate area.
