Yes, the city has chosen the site, so no sense debating alternative sites. This is also going to require a lot of public money. But that should be expected. All new arenas in similar size cities require a great deal of public financing. As for attendance going up for AHL, they are anticipating a jump in interest because of the new arena. Studies show that attendance increases in a new building, even when the product remains the same. However, let's hope there is more talk about bringing an NHL or NBA team here!!!
