Boston has lucked out massively with sports venues. Having 3 of the 4 major teams play right in the city is pretty good. Particularly that the Garden was able to be (re)built in almost the same place. I think someday when the time comes to replace Fenway, that’ll be the biggest problem.
Concerts at Fenway are definitely more convenient but as a venue it’s just awful. Terrible sight lines, terrible acoustics, and the setup usually shuts down half the streets around the ballpark for a week or two

I always thought the 49ers location was particularly egregious. They literally play more than an hour away and in a bigger city than their namesake.

Really interesting. I never realized there was a bridge there. Good luck getting Marina Bay to ever cope with that amount of traffic though
