Here in Seattle, we only just within the last couple of weeks paid off the Kingome, built in the mid-1970s and demolished in 2000....

That said, best of luck to Walker on this new plan...

I think Montreal’s Olympic Stadium ended up costing the city over $1 billion. It was built in the 70’s for the 1976 Olympics and the Montreal Expos. By the time the dump was paid off the Olympics were long gone and the Expos had moved to Washington. If memory serves, the retractable roof never worked properly. What a boondoggle!
