I think you could easily fit an 8K-10K seat stadium on the site as long as you include Nor Gen's Tent lot.
I like the idea of building a stadium south of Caterpillar, but my understanding is that those lots require an estimated $30million in environmental mitigation before any structure can be built on that land. That is why a park is the only serious use that has been discussed.
I do think that if a new stadium is built by FC Tucson, it will probably be at Kino, south of I-10. Unfortunately, that location has always underwhelmed visitors because of a lack of amenities surrounding the site. If they build out the south fields like the original plans (Hotels, bars, restaurants, parks, etc) then that ight work, but that is a lot of investment.
