    They can say whatever they want. Until they name names, it's just propaganda.

    Keep up.

    You really think someone like Russell Wilson and his rich ass wife Ciara would put their name on this for some kind of property scam? They would not sign on if they didn't see the whole picture, and the whole picture, IMO, would include the money backing this effort and where it's coming from. I don't think anyone but you really thinks this is, or needs to be, backed by local investors. It's pretty clear that's NOT the case.

    Looks like the mayor's onboard too, if that means anything.

    That would be awesome to actually have some community use property development on the river outside of golf clubs and untreated sewage that gets dumped there.

    I may be wrong here, but wasn't Wheeler not into bringing baseball to Portland before? If so, that makes this even MORE realistic.

    Sorry, but that just doesn't make sense to me. Investments are made to get a return. I just don't see how a reasonable return can be generated on this. I think it requires local investors who are not necessarily prioritizing the return on investment, but also prioritizing the good for the community.

    Back in April, when the PDP first was putting bids down on sites, Wheeler basically said it would be a long road, that his focus was on more immediate needs for the city, and that city dollars would be better spent elsewhere. A very different tone than his tweet today.
