Hearts of Pine stadium rezoning at 92 Cassidy Point Drive

The club wants to rezone 13.8 acres of industrial waterfront to build a 9,000-11,000 seat stadium, clean up the contaminated coal-pile site, and open public trails to the western waterfront. Fans and business owners overwhelmingly supported it; waterfront workers, port officials, and former city planners warned it would permanently sacrifice scarce deep-water port land.
