À mon avis ça aurait été une fichu de bonne idée d'envisager de construire un stade là! Quelle occasion ratée. Bien sûr ça aurait coûté plus cher pour déplacer l'autoroute / le boulevard urbain mais juste d'imaginer un stade de baseball au bout du boulevard Robert-Bourassa me donne des frissons! ? Et dans le pire des cas (pas de stade, pas de club) le potentiel de développement urbain aurait été fantastique.

Par contre il n'y aurait pas eu de place pour le stationnement, il y en aura beaucoup plus au sud du bassin Peel dans le cadre d'un tout nouveau développement pour le secteur. Il faut juste espérer que la station du REM du bassin Peel soit tout près, comme juste de l'autre côté du canal sur la promenade Smith pour éviter aux gens de marcher trop longtemps. Je ne crois pas à la possibilité de construire une station supplémentaire au sud du canal si on y construit un stade, le gouvernement ne voudra pas payer à cause des coûts.

Low chance for return of (MLB) Expos baseball- and no shot for (NBA) basketball in Ville Marie

According to this recent (August 20, 2018) National Post article: 

https://nationalpost.com/sports/basketball/nba/nba-in-montreal-another-pipe-dream/wcm/d13414c2-0c70-4a77-8e6a-47b9160c4c6d

"The odds are stacked against the back of Major League Baseball because it would take $ 1 billion to get the project off the ground. That's $ 500 million for a stadium, a minimum of $ 400 million to secure a franchise and at least $ 100 million to meet bargain-basement payroll which has grown at least 10-fold since the Expos left town. "

"The situation in the NBA is even more promising." The league has been shown to grow and demand for $ 1 trillion. "And Montreal would be behind Seattle, Kansas City, Tampa Bay, Mexico City, Louisville and Las Vegas in the line for a franchise."

He's right, there's no basketball culture here, NFL and baseball are way more popular in Montreal.

1 trillion? 1000 milliards? C'est pas sérieux....

when will we learn to not believe anything in the national Post!? It's an anti-Montreal and an Anti-Québec newspaper!

Agreed. I don't think the Basketball culture is big enough in Montreal for an NBA team. MLB and the NFL are way more popular!

Dommage parce que le retour des expos plus une equipe de basket aurait été incroyable et ferait de MTL une grosse ville de sport.

This article was written by Pat Hickey, long-time beat writer for the Habs for the Gazette.  He is good on the Habs beat but has limited credibility with regards to anything related to MLB or the NBA.  This is an opinion piece with little weight to it, and with all due respect to Pat Hickey he is not in any way informed on these matters, especially with regards to MLB.  How many confirmations do we need from Bronfman of the money being there to get past that question?  The issue remains in the hands of MLB and whether they decide to relocate a team or proceed with expansion.
