.....A question from someone who is just getting familiar with the Pam-Am issues - What are the plans for Ivor Wynne once a new statium is built?

Also, why would a site far out of the city core be considered at all (aside from having the space)? The WH location is closer to the core of Hamilton, no?

This is the question that has confused me about the entire fiasco. I don't understand why it became a contender at all. Having one within the core, or very near it, would help the establishments in the area - bringing in much needed revenue. Why even consider out of the way locations? That's a lot how Mississauga was built, and it still lacks a proper downtown, with the Hershey Centre in one place, a major (THE major) mall in another, the City Hall by the mall, and another major venue all the way near the Airport, etc. I dislike Mississauga and it's perpetual suburban bedroom community feel, and I work where, if there was a proper downtown, this would be it. They even tried to declare it by naming the street "City Centre Dr". It didn't work.....
