Is the new entertainment centre over Roma St station been turned off??
Not yet, still undetermined as to where it should be built and at what cost. Rumors doing the rounds are, Roma St, Central St, Bowen Hills (Showgrounds), Albion Park greyhounds, and Victoria Park. So who bloody knows

Should just upgrade BEC at Boondal. Train station right outside.

Boondall is Awful. The Main Arena being in the CBD would do wonders for the state.
if anything does get built At Vic park it should be the Arena.

It won’t happen but if it was up to me right now I’d go -
  1. Suncorp 72k refurb & Roof, Opening n Closing Olympics. Obviously all major Rectangular sports to be played here - $1B
  2. Upgrade Gabba to modern day standards. Keep same if not slightly reduced Capacity Cricket and AFL Home - $200m
  3. Rebuild the grandstands at RNA Showgrounds at Bowen Hills And Upgrade the Whole Site. Track n Field events held there. While Gabba is getting its upgrade AFL n Cricket will use the venue. After the games, will be used for Music Festivals, The Ekka, and its various other events. $300m
  4. Brand new 36k rectangular stadium built at Vic Park. Home to A league & Super Rugby, plus mid size concerts that would be to small for Suncorp. $500m
  5. Brand New Arena Also at Vic Park. Not sure on the cost of this $1.5B???

Stadium wise excluding the Arena would roughly be about $2B dollars. And with that would fix the trouble we have now with wrong size Capacity Grounds.

Suncorp - Dolphins/Broncos/Matilda’s/Socceroos/Kangaroos/Large Roofed Concerts

Vic Park Rectangular - Roar/Reds/Wallabies/Smaller Concerts

Gabba - Cricket/Afl

I can’t see how the Gabba would be big enough for a 400m running track, warm up fields for all track & field athletes in its current config. A knockdown/rebuild of an Olympic athletics stadium is really going to be tighter than a fishes asshole and gridlock Kangaroo Point, the Gabba, East Brisbane, Norman Park & Coorparoo for years. As for closing Vulture and Stanley Roads, Wynnum Rd and Old Cleveland Rds were jammed in peak hour traffic 15 years ago and neither have been significantly upgraded in that time.

it has to be Vic Park and an upgrade to Suncorp
