My only concern about the Devcore proposal is that they say the Event Centre can be built anytime or not at all, which changes the look of their design. Aquarium would be sweet though.

That would be my guess. The fact that the team is moving downtown really increases the value....

I can't find any images of the Devcore bid, but Melnyk's proposal looks practical and realistic. I hope he wins, the Sens need to move downtown.

Make it 3/4 then. It's only money.

Fair enough, that is excellent. Just saying if you complain about the commute from bear brook to ctc, you're just complaining for th sake of complaining. It's ten minutes tops.

And of course prices will go up. This is a *good* thing for the team, but bad for us far-west-enders.

That's right.
I think you have to look at the magnitude of the project. Not every entrepreneurial group can put together such bids. Also you have to realize that the arena is key to development and that drives away people.wprager wrote:TheAvatar wrote:SeawaySensFan wrote:tim1_2 wrote:SeawaySensFan wrote:I'm guessing the price is around 1/2 a BILL US.

Well the NCC was claiming it would take $300M to clean it up, so whatever the price they want Melnyk has to ask them to drop it by $300M since they'll be doing the cleanup.
It's ridiculous to talk about "market value" when it's been an eyesore and an industrial dump for several decades, and when they finally opened it up to bids only two parties showed interest. That is the market right there. And the value should be zero, since they will reap millions in taxes and tourism.
