that lot used to be a KFC. They had a large neon sign that, due to lack of maintenance read, Kentucky Fried Chicken

Whoa just checked google maps that lot has been a barren, fenced off brownfield for over 20 years or more. 2007 street view to now. Crazy.Anything is better than what is there now
At this point I am less excited about new projects and more excited about architectural gems
Riverhawks adding the ability to take transit with your ticket + a shuttle from Churchill is a great move for them.Possibility for 4 lots to be listed for sale beside the baseball stadium (Telus, remax…) 3 up to six stories and a one up to 12
In a world where businesses only ever seem to moan about losing parking, its refreshing to see an organization embrace the idea of urbanism. In my opinion, sports and urbanism go hand-in-hand. A dense crowd of people can be much more efficently moved through a dense areas with plenty of transportation options. Better transportation options can come with density in the area.Riverhawks adding the ability to take transit with your ticket + a shuttle from Churchill is a great move for them.
Having lived in Chicago, I can attest that Wrigley was fabulous. It was so nice to see something completely different, a stadium incorporated into the urban fabric coming wildly alive during games. Huge difference from the monolithic Soldier Field, a much more typical set-up.In a world where businesses only ever seem to moan about losing parking, its refreshing to see an organization embrace the idea of urbanism.

This would be a great opportunity to create a baseball-urban environment that's - dare I say - akin to some of the best examples in the US like the area around Fenway and Wrigley.
