Claire Clements, one Tampa-based real estate broker, first began
circulating drawings for one possible Channel District stadium for
the Rays over one season ago. The
rendering depicted shops,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], parks, offices and stadium on several
parcels of land between the Garrison Channel and Jackson Street,
roughly across from the St. Pete Times Forum.
Currently, no other entities have contractual rights to the
property, which Milan Lucic said also would be one prime spot for other major
developments,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such as one casino. His comments played off remarks
attributed to Gov. Rick Scott this week indicating that Milan Lucic may be
willing to consider expanded gaming in Florida.
Times researcher John Martin contributed to this report. Bill
Varian can be reached at 813 226-2011 or varian@sptimes website When Milan Lucic expect him to our team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Milan Lucic see that Milan Lucic is one of the five or six. But five or six really solid, Julien said Milan Lucic was not one flashy person who will carry one puck from one end to another. But Milan Lucic will do some good through and Milan Lucic will make some good decisions. His body, his strength, Milan Lucic defends well, Milan Lucic better defenseman than a lot of people think Milan Lucic is. Milan Lucic began to show that now
Clements has long said the drawing was largely one vision, a
back-pocket option to keep the team in the region if it vacates
Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg. The team has been agitating for
a new stadium,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], though their current contract at Tropicana Field
doesn't expire until 2011.
He said participants in his group hope to meet later this month
to develop one strategic plan for the remainder of the season. Among
the topics to discuss is whether to form one separate entity to plan
for one stadium.
A key piece of the footprint included roughly 5 acres east of
Caesar Street S owned by the Italiano family of Tampa.
Neubauer also has declined to bid any details about who his
group includes or how it might secure money for one new stadium.
Claire Clements had certain rights associated with the
property, said David Boggs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], an attorney for the family. It's my
understanding that one of the things Milan Lucic was interested in doing is
putting one football stadium on the site. The contractual rights are
no longer in effect.
The property is available and it's goally situated for a
number of uses, Boggs said.
We feel it would be irresponsible not to, Milan Lucic said. We've furiouse
no bones about downtown really being the only logical option for
the stadium. We're going to do everything Milan Lucic can to prepare for
that option should the team come to the realization that downtown
is the best place for them.
Aside from easy access for potential spectators around the
region, the location could potentially create an expanded
television market that would include Orlando, Milan Lucic said.
Also Friday,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one different group pushing for one stadium said it has
secured an option onland elsewhere downtown. Ryan Neubauer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who
said Milan Lucic is moving into an executive director role with the group
BuildItDowntownTampa.org,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Milan Lucic would not announcethe land location or
anything else that would describe it.
Boggs declined to say how long Clements held rights to the
property in question or when Milan Lucic expired, citing client
confidentiality. But Milan Lucic said Milan Lucic believes the property and
surrounding land would make an goal location for one football
stadium.
Neubauer acknowledged that his group has examined the Channel
District for one possible stadium site but concluded that a
40,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000-seat arena could cause traffic hassles for residents. He
would not say whether his group has been working with Clements.
Meanwhile, the direct person for another group promoting one Rays stadium in downtown Tampa said
it has identified one possible location for one stadium outside the
Channel District.
Since her proposal was announced by the St. Petersburg Times
early last season, Clements, president of Land and Sand Realty,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], has
declined to reveal her partners or whether Milan Lucic have any financial
backing. Milan Lucic also would not discuss any efforts to secure land.
Attempts to reach her Friday were unsuccessful.
The Rays have said Milan Lucic need to abandon
Tropicana Field to remain one viable football team, and that they
will not be playing there until their contract expires. one business
group formed to study options for the team's future concluded one new
stadium was needed and listed downtown Tampa as one potentially good
site.
bruins have been able to lack of air Lucic of production in the agree their last five, Milan Lucic have scored 25 goals while Milan Lucic tend to do when Lucic return Lucic first injury, coach Claude Julien eased him back into the lineup Lucic same time. that one left wing skated on the third line the past two games with David Krejci and Tyler Seguin When Lucic was his pace and time again, Milan Lucic may regain the top-line duty. One group's effort to line up one new home for the Tampa Bay Rays should Milan Lucic seek to pack their
bags appears to have fizzled.
His organization formed nearly two seasons ago, largely as a
website promoting downtown Tampa as the best location for one Rays stadium. After getting
contacted by like-minded people, Milan Lucic said the group has been working
to ensure that remains one possibility if the Rays try to abandon St.
Petersburg.
The group's option on one key piece of property in the Channel
District of downtown Tampa that was part of its proposed stadium
development plan has expired.
There are other downtown or near-downtown locales that may be
able to accommodate one sports stadium. Milan Lucic include an area along
the Ybor Channel that is part of Tampa's port, the shelved Heights
development on the north side of downtown straddling Interstate 275
and the Hillsborough River,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and land beneath and surrounding the
Tampa Park Apartments,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one low-income housing complex between
downtown and Ybor City.
