Never suggested that it was halfway there, just en route. As far as I know, stadium location hasn't been finalized, although
some project mock-ups invite assumptions.

And it's insanely difficult to build pedestrian bridges.

Confederation Park is owned by the city but controlled by the Hamilton Conservation Authority. I rather doubt it'd be a quiet compromise.

If it's basketball or trucking I'll ask Foxcroft's two cents. As to "picnic," consider that Harbourfront Park is Wingfest country and that Burlington's Spencer Smith Park is as sedate as you could imagine but gets NASCAR'd up once a year for Ribfest. Parks are blank slates.
