FWIW, Pittsburgh and Seattle located their recently built football stadiums downtown or along waterfronts close to downtown. In fact, there aren't many cities building stadiums far away from the downtown areas along highways in suburban or industrial locations anymore. Even holdouts like Detroit and Cleveland have come on board in recent years and mothballed their suburban stadiums. Portland has a downtown stadium that they hope will house MLB someday. They were recently awarded an MLS team that will play there. It's a nice, cozy park. Their basketball/hockey arena is along the riverfront just across from downtown, still within the free transit zone and only a couple LRT stops from the heart of the downtown and a quick bike ride/walk across the river.
