[quote=“BrockwayMT,post:17,topic:35200"”] Is there a develop plan? My big problem is all too often these things just leave a grassy field with a fence around it and a couple hundred thousand in some contractors pocket. [/quote] I agree, if there is no development contract or plan, there is no need to tear down just yet. Why should we pay to tear something down just for the sake of tearing it down? So we can have another parking lot? I am all for tearing it down if there is someone with a contract to develop the site. ---

Add to that Buffalo’s history of lawsuits any time you try to tear something down an no business man in his right mind would devote time to signing a development deal unless the land was shovel ready. ---

Hopefully they do something cool like the Tigers old stadium. [http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20060616&content\_id=1509083&vkey=news\_det&fext=.jsp&c\_id=det](http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20060616&content_id=1509083&vkey=news_det&fext=.jsp&c_id=det) They are keeping the field, dugouts, gate/entrance, etc and building around it. It would be cool to keep the rink up and be able to skate on it during the winter. ---
