taichi 2 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 I hope not. I was thinking maybe they will make renovations instead. Link to post Share on other sites
nobase2010 28 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 They should renovate it like what they had done to BC place stadium. Link to post Share on other sites
cormiermax 89 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Apparently they cant blow it up, because of the way it was built and the metro station underneath. It would cost billions and billions. Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1902 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Whatever happened to TowerGuy/YellowVest? I'm sure he'd volunteer to do the honours. Link to post Share on other sites
Lord David 225 Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 I'd attempt to convert it into a shopping mall. 2 to 3 levels perhaps? The adjoining swimming pool and tower restaurant makes it a perfect choice. Not to mention you can convert the roof to be a permanent transparent (non retractable) roof so that restaurant patrons could see the shoppers below. The whole complex of the Olympic Park would therefore be: Olympic Mall/Mall Olympique The Biodome The Swimming Complex The Restaurant and Tower Subway Station Montreal Impact's Stadium And build a proper stadium similar to Stade de France elsewhere in Montreal.

cormiermax 89 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 The Montreal Stadium was on The National today on CBC, but I can't seem to find a link to the newsclip. Saw it on CBC News Network this morning, seems there finally going to do SOMETHING. Question is, what. Although it seems like some heritage crazies want too see it kept as is.
