    SPAC got pushed back 6 months….let’s hope it actually closes so he can finance a stadium. Not the best sign.

    There is a parking lot on the other side of the waterway from west lab….can put a couple garages there. It’s not just the West Lab lot. It’s also adjacent to the University and can use university garages and lots.

    They already cut some side deals selling off part of their recovery assets worth a lot of money. He’s already cashed a couple hundred million at least. https://www.lionheartacquisitioncorp.com/press-releases/detail/48/msp-recovery-enters-into-3-billion-agreement-to-sell

    It’s not that small….would need to maybe replace a couple of the school buildings next door, or incorporate them as part of the structure. It looks roughly the same size as CGHS lot. Just saying if you’re picking between the two, West Lab makes more sense. Personally I think most realistic is...

    There is a large parking lot on the other side of the Waterway. Build garages there, pedestrian walkway across the waterway. stadium on West Lab lot + the open field adjacent to Grenada. Tailgates can be throughout school lots on campus and walk to stadium like every other school. Also an easy...

    doubt it ends up at a $20B valuation, but more than a couple B’s at least.

    Why I think West Lab is better….but it’s still just 7-8 Saturdays a year.

    Just some additional info here…. Michael Mena, Vice Mayor of Coral Gables and city commissioner is a partner at Ruiz’s law firm. He’s a rabid cane fan and was a super active poster on Grassy for a long time. Frank Quesada is about to be worth 7B in the same deal as Ruiz, is also a partner and...

    Mike Mena is one of Ruiz’s law partner and a city commissioner for Coral Gables. He’s connected politically….may not be as far fetched as you think.

    saying the traffic issue is overrated….it’s not that bad.

    Yeah, a small elementary school….much smaller than CGHS is the same as moving MIA. It’s actually much more reasonable than moving CGHS. CGHS is surrounded by residential on three sides and commercial/mall on the other. West Lab is next to an open field, the UM campus, and US1…only Residential is...

    it’s overrated….it’s 6 Saturdays a year. It’s not like the Marlins or something. That’s said, there are better places than CGHS

    Move West Lab, right off US1 and next to Metro….whatever. Doubt it happens, but if your moving a school that makes more sense than CGHS. That would be a nightmare with Bird Rd and the residential density.

    If you are going to move a school move the west lab school and build it next to the campus off Granada.
