We promise to make an official declaration on information technology...but similar everything else, we'll walk with it before we try and run. We are doing things the right manner."[13] On 9 July 2008, Dan Onorato, Chief Executive of Allegheny Canton, announced a planned development of a 78-acre (320,000 m2) sports and recreation park that covers area near Pittsburgh in Coraopolis, Robinson, and Moon known as Montour Junction.[14] The country was donated to the canton'due south Redevelopment Authority by the Sports Legacy Foundation, which is chaired by Riverhounds founder and former owner Paul Heasley.[15] The SLF had endemic the land since 2002 and had already spent about $60k for the environmental cleanup of the land, which was one time owned by the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Railroad and had been declared a brownfield.[14] The proposed uses for the park included soccer pitches as well every bit other multipurpose team sports fields such equally rugby and lacrosse. It was believed by many that a stadium would be built effectually one of the fields and that information technology would likely go a permanent home for the Hounds.
