New Recreation Center Under Construction in Hollywood
A new gymnasium and recreation center is under construction in Hollywood as part of a two-phase project to improve Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks facilities in the 3.1-acre park along Cole Avenue and Santa Monica and Cahuenga boulevards.
The approximately $18 million project is funded through Proposition K, a voter-approved measure that generates money for parks, as well as the Quimby Act, which requires developers to contribute funds when projects are approved, and CTIEP funds, which come from the city’s Capital and Technology Improvement Expenditure Program.
Philadelphia Eagles Open to Possibility of Building New Stadium
After the 2032 NFL season — which feels far off but is only six years away — the Eagles could be moving into a new stadium once their lease at Lincoln Financial Field expires.
Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie isn’t ready to reveal what the stadium will look like or where it’ll be located, but he’s keeping all options open — I mean, all options open.
That includes moving across state lines to build a new stadium.
“Whatever’s best for the fans,” Lurie said on Tuesday at the NFL owner meetings. “We don’t really go on a geographical basis, it’s whatever is best for the fans. I can’t tell you where Cleveland’s (stadium) is, Barcelona’s (stadium) is. It’s whatever is best for the fans.”
