76 Place is the downtown arena that Philly deserves.

📣

“The proposed 76 Place arena is the vehicle we need to revitalize Market Street and bring vibrancy and development back to the neighborhood. We strongly support the proposed arena and the economic, cultural and recreational impact it will have on the entire region.” John Connors, President, Brickstone Realty Corporation

"The analysis, released in partnership with the Market East Improvement Association, also points to the potential the $1.55 billion arena has to drive new development that could further enliven that section, and particularly East Market Street, once Philadelphia's premier retail hub."

“We believe 76 Place has the potential to be a major economic catalyst for revitalizing Market East, driving investment in new developments and much-needed streetscape improvements. With the proposed arena modifications outlined in the Sasaki study, we are optimistic that 76 Place can enhance neighborhood connectivity, increase visibility and access to public transportation, create significant job opportunities, and contribute to the future vibrancy, safety, and security of Market Street.” Daniel Killinger, President of National Real Estate Development and developer of East Market.

“Market East has tremendous untapped potential to become an animated, mixed-use, high-density corridor from Independence Mall to City Hall. Our shared vision is to transform the street by enhancing existing assets -- including improving transit infrastructure, preserving historic buildings, and accelerating retail, residential, and hospitality development. It envisions a fully revitalized Market East that protects and enhances adjacent communities like Chinatown, Midtown Village, and Washington Square West.” Paul Levy, President and CEO of Center City District, on how 76 Place can serve as a catalyst to transform Market East
