Yeah I’ve driven by there a couple of times and I can see it being a nightmare sometimes.
Hopefully infrastructure improvements (and that pedestrian bridge) would come with the construction of a stadium.

It’s the power station that’s across the street from Encore. It’s slated to be decommissioned in 2024. Over the past year it’s been reported that the Krafts have been looking at the site for the Revs stadium.
Encore is also developing the lot next to the plant for event space and other stuff.
Last I checked on the dog track I read that a high school might be built there.

I don't think I've heard anything about that.
Last I remember there was something being rushed through the state legislature to allow a stadium to be easily built on that land. It failed at the last vote before being signed off by the Governor a few months ago.
I wouldn't be surprised though if we hear more about this location next year.

I'm still holding out hope for the potential Revs stadium near Encore (yeah, I know I'm a masochist). I think it could be a great place to host both men's & women's soccer. Also, the pro Rugby team the Freejacks!

Lol, how’s the attendance been? I’ve been wanting to go! I don’t know much about rugby though.
