Obviously the solution is to move them to London.

The eyes of the sporting world fall on our tiki bars. Secretly, we always had a pool in Everbank, but that was just when the tarps filled up with rainwater.

This Coliseum City thing is reminding me of a similar project that Charles Wang, the former owner of the Islanders, wanted to do to Nassau Coliseum. A bit of backstory. Nassau Coliseum is the second oldest and second smallest NHL venue in existence. It's a rotting concrete lump in the middle of a massive parking lot on some of the most desirable land on the planet. It's in between two well rated colleges (Hofstra and Nassau Community), and down the road from huge Eisenhower Park. Average home prices LITERALLY ACROSS THE STREET is in the 200k's. Mostly small single family homes on 1/8 acre lots. The Lighthouse Project would have taken the rotting corpse of the Coliseum and turned it into a quote:... plan originally included a renovation of the Coliseum, a 60-story tower designed to look like a lighthouse, housing, athletic facilities, a new minor league baseball stadium, restaurants, and a new hotel, at a projected overall cost of approximately $200 million. It looked fantastic. I was so pumped for it. Because I grew up on Long Island, and unless something drastic happened, I would have to move to somewhere far cheaper. 19 thousand jobs? Holy poo poo. If this project happened, if I could get in on that, I COULD STAY ON LONG ISLAND. And so could the Islanders, because holy poo poo, they were eager to get out of there. I could continue living in a place I really enjoyed, where I grew up, where all my friends lived, and support a team I liked. Nope! It was shut down faster then a nuclear waste dump. I was forced to move to Jacksonville and become a Jaguars fan. The Islanders are moving to Brooklyn. The Republicans and developers get their giant parking lot to turn into townhomes. gently caress you Kate Murray die and burn in hockey hell AAGGHHHH. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lighthouse_Project So, good luck with Coliseum City. Hope you don't have Republicans. \/\/\/ 3.4bn. I think the 200m was going to be exclusively for just the ice hockey rink bit. \/\/\/ Suspect Bucket fucked around with this message at 04:58 on Sep 4, 2014 |
