News out today that Eden Park looking to cost council 100 mill . They should sell Eden park to developers, get some fantastic apartments in.
Then focus on a new build - waterfront? Waikaraka park?
Waterfront. Close as possible to Britomart.
Ideally a 50,000-60,000 plus a smaller 15,000 seater next door. Dreamland possibly, but this is what Cardiff has.
International football/rugby in the larger national stadium, and then Cardiff Blues club rugby team play next door at the smaller stadium.
Alternatively when knocking over Eden Park, leave EP no 2 as a boutique 15,000 seater stadium, with low one tier stands only. Almost zero parking, relying on public transport for fans, so small as a footprint as possible, surround it with 10 storey apartments, to reduce floodlight problems for local residents. I'm no architect, but there must be some clever designs possible.
Perfect description mate
Were very close to a new waterfront stadium on a number of occasions, most notably 2011 RWC, but the redevelopment of Eden Park took priority and look where that got us. Money drain
