Look up the work of architect Frank Gehry. We recently watched a good documentary about him called Sketches of Frank Gehry, filmed by his good friend Sydney Pollack.
Have you moved Edinburgh to England? :dubious: Oh, never mind, as long as it’s only the football places you want, you’re welcome to those.
I was out for a walk the other day and snapped this picture. The house is still inhabited and the stuff around it is almost finished being built. It’s sort of the opposite of the OP’s request, since the neighborhood is turning completely non-residential, and that’s the one residential thing left.
In that map, you can see Mitchell International Airport, a UPS hub, a FedEx Hub, a USPS hub, and TWO Air Force Bases (128th and 440th) all on one property. You can also see my house (and lots of others).
The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and the LA Sports Arena complex has a number of houses and apartments directly across the street to the south, as you can see using the street view here. I grew up in the neighborhood, and I can tell you that the residents made LOTS of money charging for parking during USC and Raider games.

Way back when, I lived up North in Mae Hong Son province. The airport is right in the center of the main town, which was only about 5000 population back then, not much bigger now. Townspeople frequently cut across the runway as a normal walking route. Whenever a plane was about to land or take off, a man I called Mr. Motorcycle would ride out to keep people back. I’d often be sitting on the front porch of my house, located near the end of the runway, and watch the first plane of the day land. That was my signal the newspapers had come in. There were only two or three flights a day, but they were LOUD. The runway was used as a community exercise area after the last plane left in the evening.
Hong Kong’s old Kai Tak Airport also used to be right in the middle of Kowloon, the lower mainland portion of the colony. You could see people in their high-rise apartments as you swooshed in.
