I don’t understand why people are so anti stadium as though the 76ers have to “do something for the city”
- Stay in Philadelphia they could move to Camden and then everyone would have egg in their face.
- They tried to build on Penn and landing but city council went with a different developer which I support but I believe I read a few months back that the developer who won the contract is now having financial issues.
- I don’t support building a bowl stadium but tearing down half of the fashion district which is 40% empty anyways should be a so contentious.
- I don’t see how building a stadium in north Philly is going to help anyone if anything it would more than like displace a lot of families.
- If septa ran a game day train schedule we would be fine, honestly the regional rail schedule needs to be increased anyway. It’s obvious you can’t expect people to take public transportation and then run a train every 2 hours.
- The people who keep claiming they want to protect Chinatown, act like the city can’t find other remedies, build the chins tien stitch and then boom you have all kinds of real estate for them, eliminate parking mínimums and allow it densify.
Y’all just want to complain instead of finding real solutions.

Or...they could just find somewhere not complete trash to put the stadium...oh like the district with the rest of the stadiums? Crazy thought I know...

Let’s say they did build it there, where exactly would you propose they put it? With current parking mínimums there’s no desirable real estate.
