76ers Reach Deal with Comcast Spectacor to Stay in South Philly, Dropping Center City Arena Plans

76ers Plan to Stay

The 76ers have decided to remain in South Philadelphia’s sports stadium district, according to multiple City Council members. This decision follows over two years of intense debate about building a new arena on East Market Street in Center City.

Despite City Council passing legislation late last year to support the Center City arena project, Comcast Spectacor worked to keep the team in South Philly. Their efforts included unveiling a $2.5 billion redevelopment proposal for the area, featuring thousands of apartments, restaurants, and expanded entertainment options.
