A recent article in the NP chronicled the complications of developing and installing grass inside the Rogers Centre. I know Rogers and the Jays are really pushing for real grass but at this stage it isn't a guarantee.

Many Jays fans seems to be clamouring for a new baseball facility as the Dome becomes more obsolete relative to newer MLB ballparks. Gweed brought up Bloor-Dundas as a possible ballpark location in another thread. I have seen others post online about Christie Pitts being an ideal location. Other suggestions include Dowsnview and the Portlands.
Before considering a new ballpark, I believe Rogers should first look into extensively renovating the Rogers Centre as it is in desperate need of a serious face lift and retrofit. Should installing grass prove impossible and renovation costs be substantial, should a new baseball stadium be built in this city? If so, where are the prime locations to do so from a land and transportation perspective?
