Comcast Spectacor one-ups the Sixers with a smart, urban plan for the sports complex

While the plan won’t turn the stadium parking lots into a neighborhood overnight, it starts a discussion about how to use that wasted real estate for the kind of activities that make cities, cities.

Comcast's new plan for the sports complex will fill in the parking lots south of Pattison Avenue with a variety of buildings. A new concert venue would be located midway between the Wells Fargo Center (left) and Citizens Bank Park (lower right). Comcast says it would turn Broad Street into a gracious residential boulevard lined with apartment towers and hotels.
