Finkl Steel to become DePaul new stadium site

[GM]

After Finkl moves the Finkl site is suppose to be the new site for the DePaul Stadium. Any news on this?

I did some work on the house of mrs. Finkle herself. Last she told me they were still going to own the land and maybe have it developed with more condos. This was a little over a year ago.

Hi,

I have absolutely nothing to back this up but here goes...

The big question we\'ve all been wondering is why the CT fought so hard for lines that had no customers and little real chance of getting some.  Being Chicago it seems likely that there was some cash being moved around.  However, it would be nice if they had secured some benefits for future growth such as getting Chicago to preserve the Finkel area as an industrial area instead of making it a stadium.

The problem is that the finkl site is a EPA headache and does dupaul want to pay the cleanup costs.
