Stadium Discussion

Won'y be hard to find out via Twitter, trust me.

Just pulled up. There are about 20 protesters here yelling “puck off” “jobs and careers, not hotdogs and beers” it’s pretty comical. I’ll report more after I head in.

I bet they are paid protesters.

Very possible. I have a feeling there might be some silly shit happening at this meeting. It will be a good sign of just how serious we take this bid. I saw what people said about no renderings. I’m hoping they are just keeping it under raps and we will see some afterall.

Man City's CIO is representing us today. Interesting.

2 notes:

Stadium on North side which is away from homes, unlike the Cosmos proposal.

35% of the entire site left open for stuff to be used later on with input from the community.

In terms of what I'm guessing will be more residential friendly, I'm guessing we win in this regard,

"Part of NYCFC plan includes practice fields and soccer field house. Open to public to rent fields and time for youth soccer and classes that would be free."

So any local NPSL teams or something. I can't defend this team anymore

Presentation was only one slide though, which is sort of LOL.

Relax, why would they put up a bad proposal? Sets a bad precedent for a site we actually want.

Not to mention the crowd grumbled when no “print outs” were provided lol

FWIW, they WOULD add a MTA station to the arena. Not saying it's any better, just that it's part of the proposed plan.

I wonder if it would be LIRR, or otherwise?

That actually does make me feel better.

At least from both plan renderings it seems that the islanders want their space to be more compact, ours is more spread out, with more general community space to be utilized, which makes us look a bit better. Ours was certainly not a throwaway bid for what it’s worth.

Absolutely not, it's a good bid and more community friendly.
