If Toronto was to get a NFL team or Second NHL.....

Where would be the best place for a new stadium or stadiums?

FIRST option would be a redeveloped YORKDALE.. With condos a hotel and a NHL TEAM!!!

SECOND option would be Right across from a NFL stadium at downsview park....

THIRD Option would be take down the allen between Lawrence and Eglinton and build the stadium at Eglinton where Egl West currently is with Condos and hotels behind it....

Fourth Somewhere near Bay Bloor. Reason this team will have a hard time getting people to convert from being leaf fans. Yorkville might persuade some ppl that being a fan of this new team can be Trendy.

Too dar. AS a Torontonian I would like to be able to support a possible winning franchise by at least transit. Thats why Yorkdale and Downsview park are my preffered options. Drivable and Subwayable and not in the middle of nowhere (at least not in compared to wonderland) Even tho this question is fantasy its probably alot closer to reality. And reality would dictate that it would need corporate sponsers which should make it closer to the city not farther.

What street corners in Yorkdale would work, just to be precise?

I was just trying to be funny.....I doubt Toronto is getting another team.
 
Should be near Downsview station. Gives a reason for a Sheppard subway westward extension.
 
I don't think Toronto should get a second NHL team. If 'Toronto' does, it should be a suburban (read 'Mississauga') team.
