Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, which has enjoyed the unique privilege of having its bayfront corporate headquarters located within the port, right in the middle of all the maritime action, does not like the idea of a soccer stadium being built on its turf, and they're ready to rumble.
The site is too restricted for David Beckham]'s soccer stadium extravaganza they say, security is a big fear too, and congestion is an even bigger fear. Not a word about losing their rarified perch with its sweeping views. On the up side, now that an opposition has been assembled, the real fun of megaproject bureaucracy can begin. Lawyers at the ready? Let the battle begin.
