If something like this were undertaken, I'd propose it would be built with the future in mind (I'm thinking 2030s).
To have space to host 25% of the FRC population that far in the future, there probably needs to be space to support 1000-1500, not just 800.
Figure the stars align and everything gets moving tomorrow, I don't see the completion until well after 2020, and building for anything less than a decade of use seems very short sighted and a misallocation of funds.
Also think about what you'd give up to have that venue. $500 million would go a very long way towards growing the program (instead what about $100k per team for 5000 new teams?)
