You are making hypotheticals. You also have no idea if Nats park was the sole driver of growth there..which it was. Union Market is a craphole, the Wharf is fantastic right on the water which was an easy win for developers (who also received tax benefits), H Street is really nothing special.

Obviously there wasn't development near LANDOVER because it's a far out no nothing town near zero public transit besides a metro over a mile away.

Look at the major cities, the areas surrounding urban stadiums are key economic drivers. I have been to every MLB stadium and the ones in the city core have fantastic amenities, night life, new development, etc. The ones in the suburbs are horrid.

The anti sports crowd is very bizarre and clearly in the minority.

DC would be a wasteland with zero sports teams in DC proper.

There's a huge difference between building a baseball stadium that will host 81 baseball games plus around 10 special events per year compared to a football stadium, even a domed one, that will host around 10 home games plus perhaps 10-15 concerts. Your inability to distinguish the difference between the two proves you to be an idiot who deserves to be ignored. That and a suburbanite who treats DC like your own personal playground so you don't have to drive to Landover for special events. Screw you.[/quote]
