If cost is the concern, why did it get placed downtown where land is expensive? The stadium could have been built on the outskirts where land is cheaper and they can build as much parking as they want.
We should also be factoring in the long term impacts. Over the course of 20 years is it better to have a sea of parking around the stadium or a parking garage which leaves space for local restaurants, shops and merch stores to open right next to the stadium?
The thing missing from so many basements is 6 levels of parking.
Guess what we need on every roof. If you guessed 30 storeys of 1000-1200sqft rentals, you'd be right!
We should do that. But politicians that are out of office in a couple of years really don't care because by then it won't be their problem to solve. Solving actual problems is boring but the flashy project that was totally unnecessary will be remembered. For better or worse.
They are supposed to serve us and provide to society, not protect their egos and their legacy.
