New Stadium/Arena For Team In (NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, etc.) Thread (soccer, baseball)

[swbrotha100]

So one common story that pops up is a local team in a pro sport trying to get a new stadium built. If others are interested, we could discuss any stadium being proposed or under construction now. We can also discuss the struggles of some cities or teams in being able to get financing or votes to build a new stadium.

I know, but I don't know what their stadium situation is.

I didn't even realize there were rumors of a stadium being built in Montreal. It is definitely necessary for MLB to consider returning baseball to that city though.

I don't think there are any serious rumours about a new baseball stadium in Montreal.

Not serious. But thrown around a few times, at least.

Labatt Park, being one.

[Canes2006Champs]

The City of Raleigh about a year ago presented a long-term vision plan for the Downtown area. One of those plans was the possibility of a new sports arena. This would be the new home of the Carolina Hurricanes, but would also probably serve as the entertainment venue of the area. It would also play host to NCAA tournaments.

While nothing is currently in the works, this will likely gain steam in the next 5-10 years as a proposal.

Labatt Park was probably the last project that was anywhere close to being concrete.

It was floated when the Expos were still playing in Montreal though.
