Marlins Stadium: The public’s view results

A Marlins ballpark should be built in downtown Miami, rather than at the Orange Bowl, according to the results of a survey conducted by long-time Miami public relations firm Everett Clay Associates.

But it wasn’t exactly a landslide. In September, the company sent out a four-question survey that included the question of where a stadium should be built and of 2,268 sent out, only 231 were returned.

Of those, 39 percent voted for downtown Miami; 36 percent for the Orange Bowl. And 25 percent said a stadium should not be built and many of them said no public funds or tax dollars should be used.
