It's regrettable that the Whitecaps waterfront stadium didn't get built, but maybe a waterfront baseball park could be built. This would make the venue itself an attraction on top of the baseball game. It's a realistic plan if you phase it in. Build a 20 000 seat minor league park that is expandable to major league standards.

Wonder if Nash, now that he's retired, would think about trying to get the NBA to come back to Van. He said it's an option in an interview with the VancouverSun.
