If it were up to you, where would you put a new stadium?

And give your reason. For me, i would bulldoze the whole area between canal and basin st. with I-10 to the north. Closer to the FQ and enough room to have a lot for tailgating.
Also, open air FTW
Secondly, do you think the saints will be the only team never to get a new stadium (excluding green bay). I get the feeling we are married to the dome forever.

I'd hate to see it move with such an awesome spot downtown. But City Park an/or right on the river would be nice alternatives.
While I would like this, August/September games would be so brutal.

Nowhere. The Dome is perfectly situated. It's in an ideal location. Also, anyone who thinks we need an open-air stadium in one of the hottest and wettest cities in America is an imbecile.

Somewhere on the Lakefront, with parking lots around the stadium.

Play at tiger stadium for 2 years.
Demolish the dome, make it a modern day stadium.
You cannot move the dome without losing the appeal of bring so close to the activities.
Slidell, westwego, and Kenner are too far.
New Orleans east is not safe.
Metairie doesn't have much space.
Lakefront/Lakeview has a good bit of viable land that could accommodate it, but it's missing that appeal

1. Hell no to the open air.
2. If you are going to build a new stadium tear down the dome and build it in the same spot.

No the Chiefs just recently paid a lot of money to renovate Arrowhead and the Dolphins to renovate their stadium.

So this one?

choice number 1 is its most practical to stay where it is, maybe expand outward some to enlarge capacity and parking.
super great on the wish list is if they would put it in hammond, the land is cheap and there are still lots of open undeveloped areas to choose a spot right off the interstate plus its mid way from NO and BR but far enough away to get out of the stupid traffic and high crime areas of both of those cities

clear out some land in st. tammany.
hotels, food joints, brick streets, move the saints hall of fame, plenty of paid places to tailgate, etc. make sure nothing is free.
plenty of rv parking and security.
no bus routes either.

Soldier Field ain't going anywhere either.
The Dome is in great shape, and with the planned upgrades it will be even better.
I do with there was more tailgating space, though. That's the only downside. But putting it on the river, or putting it on Basin, won't give you that either. And the benefits of being so close to everything else more than compensate for the lack of tailgating space.
Besides that area by Basin is in the process of being gentrified.
