The city's gone through painstaking efforts to revitalize the riverfront area. If/when we get a new stadium here, it would be nice if it could work as a revenue generator for the city - especially if we're ponying up for a good chunk of financing.
An enclosed stadium allows you to bring in concerts and shows year-round. Nobody's gonna want to come here and play outside in 10 degree weather - so a third of the calendar year is shot.
Hey, don't get me wrong, I would be all for a retractable roof. Increased comfort for fans and players, better conditions for the kickers, increased noise advantage for the home team.... just pointing out that all 4 of the AFCN teams play in open air stadiums. While Indy is nice, I hope if Cincy builds one, they do not make it look like a warehouse like Indy does.
