Geographic Information Science Geography Urban Planning Sports Stadiums Urban Redevelopment Minor League Baseball Over the past three decades, the use of public dollars to fund the creation of professional sports stadiums has been a polarizing subject. Early research papers hypothesized the possible effects on the environment and through their analysis found that generally these stadiums have negative effects on the region economically. However, as the conversation has continued throughout the new millennia, new evidence has mounted suggesting that under the right circumstances these stadiums can have a positive impact on the community. This analysis will examine the impact of two sports stadiums in Toledo, Ohio on the sales value of parcels in Lucas county and within one mile of the sports facilities. Using data collected from the Lucas County Auditor’s Office, a series of linear regressions are produced to analyze the impact of the introduction and spatial effect of stadiums on the parcel sales environment. Based on the results, the inconsistency of statistically significant variables makes it difficult to say that the facilities had a positive or negative effect on the community. However, there is some evidence to suggest that these stadiums did impact parcel sales amounts under specific circumstances.  2020 English text University of Toledo / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1588928725714156 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1588928725714156 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
