That’s setting the bar appropriately low!

Wasn‘t there a plan to move cricket there so Eden Park could be made rectangular?

Western Springs was once proposed to be the new home for cricket in Auckland - so if this development goes ahead, it's could well be one less option the city has to separate cricket & footy grounds.

Next minute - we end up with the "all things to all sports" Eden Park getting even more money shoveled into it, when it's clearly not the ideal for out biggest city, being in the middle of a residential zone & being a compromise between an oval and a footy ground.

I see that Eden Park is wanting to host more and more concerts, good luck to them getting that on track!
