The Blue Jays could be getting a new stadium

The Rogers Centre, formerly Skydome, has been the home of the Toronto Blue Jays since 1989.

Now, according to a report from the Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail, Rogers Communications, which owns both the team and the stadium, wants to partner with a real-estate company called Brookfield Asset Management Inc. and demolish the retractable-dome facility and build a new park for the Jays:

Rogers and Brookfield are working with city, provincial and federal government officials on a plan that would effectively cut the Rogers Centre in half. The partners would build a new, baseball-focused stadium on the foundations of the southern end of the current facility and adjacent parking lots.
