303magazine.comSt. Louis has a similar block next to Busch. I imagine it's going to be like the rooftop, but instead of in the stadium, it will be across the street

I had a wild and crazy time at fox sports live outside Busch, and looking forward to xfinity live in philly next season.
These types of places are always the next best thing to actually being at the game. Beer is still way to expensive, but you can watch other games and later on get hammered at one of the bars, dancing the night away with strangers.

Can someone lend me $700K?

Mite be cool

I've seen that parking lot. It's pretty big but idk if they're going to fit all that shit in there. Seems a little overzealous.

You'd be surprised. Think about the block that holds Beta, Jacksons, Falling Rock, 1UP, etc. That parking lot is the same size as that block.

Phoenix has CityScape which is pretty cool and similar. I'm not so sure Denver needs this but it might end up alright.

CityScape is sick, but a big portion of that is office and hotel. Though there are quite a few good restaurants on the ground and first floors, I had brunch there before the Wild Card game.

STL is my 2nd favorite team. I go there quite a bit and Ballpark Village kicks ass. I hope they can do something like the Cardinals

And parking was already difficult. Now subtract ~300 parking spots from the area

They'll put them underground. IIRC part of them being allowed to develop that block is that they will have to make up the parking 1:1.

1:1 for residents or 1:1 for Rockies fans? You're not necessarily going to get 100% Rockies fans living in this building.

Under ground?

These are always cool. I'm not a Colorado native so I don't know how feasible it is, but assuming it's done well I would think it could be dope. LA Live is pretty sick even though it's in LA, and I've been wanting them to do something like this around Angel Stadium and the Honda Center in Anaheim. Would be a cool place to hang out all day on weekend games.
LA Live was the first thing I thought of when describing this to my wife. It's a great addition and the pics look great. The only potential drawback is we have enough fans going to the games that aren't really hardcore baseball fans, wouldn't want to suck any ticket revenue away.
True, but maybe it will draw some more people to the area that wouldn't have normally gone who then end up at the game anyway. It could be more of an all day destination rather than just a game and gone.
