My concern here is Cleveland doesn't see this as an opportunity to fix some of their past mistakes, and build that City in a way that actually makes it embrace the waterfront...
Well they're building a state of the art Cavs/Cleveland Clinic facility right on the water in The Flats.
I don't know. I'm not a real estate or planning expert but part of me thinks that the reason why the city hasn't invested so much on the lakefront is because they knew that the current stadium always had the potential to be rebuilt or moved and with that uncertainty, it would not have been advantageous to develop around a sitting duck. Whatever the city could've envisioned on the lakefront can still happen. It's just that now we'll know the status of the main draw which is/was the stadium.
