The city of Philadelphia said Wednesday it will conduct an independent evaluation of the Philadelphia 76ers’ proposed Center City arena, a hot-button development project that’s been closely watched since being unveiled last summer.

The $1.3 billion arena is proposed at the site of the Fashion District on Market Street between 10th and 11th streets. The Sixers need city approval before moving ahead with the project.

The city’s study is planned to evaluate building design, community impact, urban planning, economic impact and parking and traffic impact.
