76ers Release Renderings of New Stadium
Renderings of the proposed arena for the 76ers and Flyers show an exterior design that pays homage to the Spectrum and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
The South Philly arena is being designed by architect Moody Nolan and the design firm Populous, which also helped design Citizens Bank Park. It will be built at the site of the Spectrum, which was torn down in 2011, and will open in time to host the inaugural season of Philly's future WNBA team in 2030.
West Point Unveils $170M East Stands Project at Michie Stadium
After two years of construction, Army fans are about to experience a much different Michie Stadium.
West Point gave News 12 a behind-the-scenes look Tuesday at the newly rebuilt East Stands and other additions that are part of the $170 million, privately funded Michie Stadium Preservation Project.
The overhaul includes 8,000 new seats in the East Stands, ranging from seating for the Corps of Cadets to new premium club areas.
“When Michie was built 100 years ago, [it] didn’t have a lot of premium seating options,” said Phil Buttafuoco, deputy athletic director for business development and fan experience.
NBA Star Trae Young Unveils Plans for New Youth Sports Complex
NBA star and Washington Wizards point guard Trae Young and his family are bringing the Young Family Athletic Center to Yukon as part of one of the largest commercial developments in the city’s history.
“This can’t be done with just one person; it takes a whole group; it takes a village to make something like this happen,” Young said.
The "Miller Crossing and Young Family Athletic Center" will be the first component of a larger mixed-use development planned along Yukon Parkway, located on annexed property directly across from Yukon High School. Young said the opportunity to bring the facility to Yukon was an easy decision.
“When I got the call from my dad about this opportunity to bring it out here, I thought it was a no-brainer, because Oklahoma is only getting bigger,” Young said.
