Comcast unveils plans for "Philly Live!"
It's being called "Philly Live!" and is basically a plan to re-develop the area around the stadiums in South Philadelphia with retail shops, dining, and other entertainment. I must say, this is a long time coming and I'd absolutely welcome it.
This is a rendering of what it could look like.

Sounds fun...
Interesting
Looks to be the new approach overall to arenas and stadiums. The Islanders are doing it with the Lighthouse complex out in Long Island, the Yankees have considered doing it with the new stadium and frankly, even Atlantic City has done it with outlet stores. Might not be such a bad idea.
Looks like Pittsburgh

Kind of
I actually like the stadium area in Pittsburgh. I caught a Phils/Pirates game there two summers ago and had a blast. Their new ballpark may be my favorite in the MLB right now
Agreed
I guess the new Philly pic does have a bit of Pitt's approach to it. The only difference is they have 6 different sports teams playing practically on the same block. Although Heinz and PNC are relatively close, Mellon and even the new arena will not be.
Spectrum gets torn down
yea
Looks nice... but....
