It has the added benefit of being able to raze Joe Louis Arena, the worst hockey stadium in North America, which also happens to sit on awesome real estate on the river. Getting it out of the way will allow us to expand the riverfront district that much further, which I think will encourage even more development. The arena is expensive, but I have a hard time seeing it as a negative.

Like putting a garage on your house, after it burns, while you're not paying the mortgage, and before you leave town. Because you always wanted a new garage.
