^ From what I understand they are building the arena no matter what. Will be curious what will happen with it, if no professional sports teams play there.

This is the proposed location: 34°06'26.6"N 84°14'06.7"W · 34.107389, -84.235194

The other was demo'ing part of north point mall and building it there but it seems this one has more traction.


And if you have Bobby Orr on your side, how can you not get approved?

Hey, the colonic and massage spa is right next door - Maybe hockey will have a happy ending in Atlanta after all :D

Right down the road at this park used to be two Dek Hockey rinks. 34°05'50.1"N 84°14'05.0"W · 34.097250, -84.234722 One was covered and the other wasn't (you can obviously tell where the uncovered rink was). Maybe if they bring hockey back, they will rebuild and reopen these. A long time ago I would play pickup games here with folks I worked with when I was in town.

They used to have organized leagues here also.
