The $775 million price tag for a stadium at Hobart’s Macquarie Point does not include the cost of building a multi-storey underground car park, or relocating the heritage-listed Goods Shed, the agency in charge of the build has confirmed.
Ms Beach said the organisation intended to recoup the cost of building the car park by taking it to market and selling it to a private operator, in the same way it intends for $55 million of unfunded “revenue-generating features” not included in the $775 million cost estimate, including a food and beverage fit out, CCTV and LED advertising signage.
