Don’t forget, the entire financial district of San Francisco is built on landfill. It includes a lot of ships that were abandoned during the Gold Rush and then dirt piled on top of that. The only problematic building is the Millennium Tower, which is leaning. But, that’s because the developers didn’t drive piles down to bedrock in order to save money. Buildings can be entirely safe when built on swamps and landfills as long as piles are driven all the way down to bedrock.
Not true, Sales Force Townes is on total bedrock. They had to dig 300 feet to get to it but it’s not all just fill. They just have to dig deep to get to bedrock but its not all on fill. Same with most of the other buildings, there is bedrock all around the they just have to dig deep to get to it. Mil Tower that is tilting is actually on bedrock but the idiot builders didn’t tie in the foundation to bedrock and that’s why it is tilting now.
Burke is a city owned, public airport with very limited passenger service. It’s primarily general aviation, and they’ve been talking about removing it for decades. The only piece of lakefront property in Cleveland that gets less use than Burke Lakefront airport is Cleveland Browns stadium. Keep the Browns downtown, build somewhere away from the lakefront like the Guardians (Indians) did, and redevelop the stadium land and the airport land into parks and usable lakefront property. And the Haslams can build a dome or an open stadium or a hole in the ground if they want, as long as they do it with their own money.
That stadium when it was built was built really fast because the NFL put them on a time line to have it built. Sloppy construction alot of prefab parts. Upper deck is too steep and very weird to walk up.
Because it was a poor design for the harsh weather it deals with sitting on the lake. It needs Millions in repairs every few years just to keep it running
It made me mad as hell here in Atlanta when the Georgia dome got demolished not even like 30 years old it was 20 something years old and it was totally fine. The new stadium is over commercialized and more expensive. They should have at least kept it alongside the new one and not demolished it.
Been a fan of the Browns for 3 decades. Love that the team in in the city. There isn’t anywhere else to build a new stadium. Burke IS the solution. The only one. A domed stadium with surrounding businesses would do SO much for the city. I’ve wanted this for a long time and I’m happy to see that it’s at least on the table. Set up a monorail system to a group of parking garages (maybe the site of the current stadium) and you’ve got year round entertainment plus the ability to hold major events (concerts, WWE, Super Bowls, etc) for generations to come.
Burke is owned by the city of Cleveland. MLB visiting teams land their planes there. Every Labor Day there is a major air show that lands large military cargo planes there.
The Brook Park property has already been cleared out by the current owners and put up 1 new warehouse building but all construction stopped when the news of Haslams purchase agreement came out. The remaining Ford plant is not an issue at all. It also has easy access to I480 and I71 and Hopkins Intl is planning a $3billion renovation which includes redoing rt 237 that runs right in between the proposed stadium site and the airport. Burke would be a good spot if the land can support it but that property has been an ongoing fight for decades on whether or not to close the airport
I'm a huge advocate for keeping an open-air stadium and keeping the same spot we've been in forever, but I'm glad this is emerging as an opportunity. Brooks Park is something I'm not a big fan of at all. Keeping on the lake is a priority in my eyes.
For feasibility of building on land fills just look at lower Manhattan. Some of your 911 videos show construction of twin towers pretty much next to hudson river. I remember one photo I recently saw in one of your videos about the new beach on the Hudson. That was a land fill there and eventually skyscrapers were built there. (for clarification land fills are where ground/dirt/sand etc are put in water to create more landmass. They are not the same as landfills used to dispose waste)
Fun fact- one of the issues with development along the lakefront is the height restriction because of the Burke traffic pattern. Without the airport the areas around the current stadium could be filled with high rises. Also- the stadium currently sits on landfill.
A hypothetical stadium district doesn't usually have structures taller than the stadium itself, so high-rises capped at that height shouldn't or wouldn't be an issue.
TBH I didn't watch the full video. I still maintain that 100% open-air NFL stadiums ought to be banned. In Cincinnati you have Paul Brown and it is absolutely useless. I believe the current Browns stadium is probably another money pit.
Detroit built the Silver Dome and the Palace in the suburbs then years later moved back downtown. I hate domes for football but if they do build one then they to make it like Lucas Oil in downtown Indianapolis.
Will never happen. Burke is very useful to certain industries in the area, but could theoretically be done without. The big deal is that it’s also built on top of an old landfill that can support the current airport, which is nothing more than a big parking, but couldn’t structurally support buildings of this size without 100’s of millions of dollars in soil remediation and deep foundation work alone, and that’s before anything is even built.
Keep these teams downtown, I support the Browns staying downtown, it's easier to keep the stadium filled when it's downtown. Same thing with the Bears, no reason to decrease your attendance overtime by moving to the suburbs when you're in the perfect spot.
It’s a perfectly good venue and only 25 years old. There’s nothing wrong with the browns current stadium. This is just so the owner can bring in more revenue for his pocket.
Cleveland should just do what we're doing here in Baltimore- continued investment in M&T Bank Stadium that will keep the Ravens there through nearly 2040.
@@imnotsqiddy All stadiums aren't built to the same standards. There are some stadiums worth the effort to upgrade and maintain, and then there are stadiums like ours here in Nashville.

I have no idea if that's the case in Cleveland, but it could be.

First, rural missourians will not assist kc or st louis. Second, since Hunt voted AGAINST the st louus nfl expansion AND FOR stan kronke moving rams la, st. Louis will not help either, so Parsons will get no help, like it or not. Look. Though not a sports enthusiat. I still want missouri to be successful, and I support efforts to help all these teams to stay here. Also. While true, Hunt could build a stadium like Kroenke, why build in such a small market. The rams at least doubled in value going to LA. The chargers went too. That stadium is next to LAX almost, and near all the happening stuff there. The Olympics and supercool are there. How do visitors get from our airport to our stadium and what di they di before and afterwards. Are t h by going to come rent 20,000 rental cars to drive around in kc. Due to our size, climate, logistics, and infrastructure, we HAVE to step up. San Diego county has 3.5 million people and lost a team.
