New Jets Arena will be very expensive. When the time comes for it to happen, what will become of the existing arena? Also, where would a new Jets Arena be built? Portage Place. So, Iām not sure what you are meaning?

Yep I agree. 10-15 years the Jets will be asking for a new arena. The current arena will go the way of the few post 90's facilities they didn't last/couldn't be renovated enough(see Atlanta/Texas and soon the White Sox in MLB, Tennessee/Atlanta in football, the Oklahoma City arena in NBA and the Coyotes Glendale arena and soon Ottawa in the NHL) New Jets Arena will be very expensive. When the time comes for it to happen, what will become of the existing arena? Also, where would a new Jets Arena be built? The existing arena would obviously be demolished.

The existing arena would obviously be demolished. What would that old Arena turn into/development wise if the old/existing Arena is demolished? Where would they build the new Arena? Any thoughts on both questions? Cheers, 2b9š

Any thoughts on both questions? Cheers, 2b9š I'm not familiar enough with Winnipeg to say what would go there. I'm not from Winnipeg. Just guessing I would say some type of development like shops/housing etc... On every Jets message board I've been to people have said Portage Place is where a new arena would go. I have no clue where that is but that's what Winnipeg people say.

Yep, if they demolish the old Arena, something as you have said would go there. Portage Place will not be where the New Arena ends up, Portage Place as we speak is about to be totally reconfigured and redeveloped shortly. The new Arena would probably be built somewhere Downtown where there are a number of adjoining, adjacent parking lots/surface parking lots that will be able to accommodate such a large development. Cheers, 2b9š
