Detroit Red Wings to Build New Arena

One of the NHL's original-six teams will be moving, albeit within the city, as the Detroit Red Wings are headed from Joe Louis Arena to a new arena in 2017. The move is expected to generate $1.8 billion in economic impact. 

In addition to the brand new facility, Red Wings owner Michael Ilitch and his real estate company, Olympic Development of Michigan, will also provide more perks for the fans. The company plans to renovate an area in the city to create a "world-class sports and entertainment district." The Phoenix Coyotes have a similar complex in Glendale, Arizona that has a slew of amenities called, Westgate City Center. If Red Wings fans were looking for any sort of inkling as to how the new district will turn out, the one in Phoenix was dubbed as having "changed the city."
