I'm not a fan of the aquarium idea. Just like zoos, I think they are antiquated attractions. A prison for humans to display their dominance on other creatures.
I wouldn't mind a museum, but there's no money in it, so not going to happen.
An NHL arena is still my top choice, but with the current owner and his history with the City and NCC, not going to happen.
I don't see the rush to build-up this parcel. Focus on the east. With the continued uncertainty around COVID and sky-high construction costs, this is not the time to ask for proposals. We won't get any quality proposals at this time because there is no money in it. Residential is just about the only thing we can still build profitably. Wait another 5-10 years.
