Mr Brown wants to keep all of the Bengals facilities together...downtown. Therefore the only place available to build an indoor practice facility is the Bengals practice field. But, that location can't be built on. Not only are they dealing with the highway and other roads but apparently a large number of buried utility lines underneath the lot with no place to move them.
Maybe when Mr. Brown dies, Katie and Troy will consider the suburbs or NKY as a location for building
Anything can be moved. It's a question of how much it will cost and who is going to pay it. That has probably been the bone of contention all along.
You would think that the city would be thrilled that the Bengals want to maintain and build their presence downtown. Instead they've spent the last decade plus creating an adversarial relationship with the team while using the stadium tax as a slush fund.
