Everyone who knows anything about urban planning has been saying this for years. Arenas are terrible for neighborhood livability. That's why, in healthy cities, they're traditionally placed away from urban residential neighborhoods.

If you live in those townhouses across Woodward, there is absolutely no benefit to a flood of honking horns every few days, during evening rush hour, no less. You're basically a prisoner in your home, watching suburban fatties scream, litter and urinate in your bushes.
