76ers, Flyers Unveil Design for New South Philadelphia Arena
The privately funded venue, designed to evoke the city's old Spectrum arena, is targeted to open before the 2030 WNBA season, according to ESPN.
The Philadelphia 76ers and Philadelphia Flyers have unveiled renderings of a new arena planned for South Philadelphia, according to ESPN.
The venue is described as fully privately funded and is targeted to open before the start of the 2030 WNBA season, ESPN reported.
According to the report, the arena's design draws on the aesthetic of the Spectrum, the now-demolished Philadelphia arena that previously served as home to both franchises before the construction of what is now known as the Wells Fargo Center.
Details on the exact timeline, cost and further design specifics of the project were not fully outlined in the available reporting.
ESPN characterized the unveiling as marking a new era for Philadelphia sports, with the two franchises moving forward on a shared arena project in the South Philadelphia sports complex area.
