Philly Live! Cool or Uncool?


Here are some of the proposed ideas and pictures of what PhillyLive! could look like when they tear down the Spectrum at the end of this year. The700level had a post on this as well. I bring this question to my fellow Philadelphians, Will this be cool or no? It's always nice to have new restaurants, bars, live music/ entertainment down at the sports complexes in South Philly to go to before games or just to hang out at. People will still pay $7 plus for a beer & $9 cheesesteaks are going to be expected, but some of the joys of going to the games is tailgating out in the parking lots. A tradition that will not change, but the new facility will have some impact on parking & traffic. Which leads me to my most negative point about the sports complexes in general....traffic blows down there. Is it so hard to manage a steady flow of cars leaving that area? Why not start by opening up all the gates to a parking lot so people can get out instead of sitting idle waiting for their turn to move up 10 feet. Maybe it's just me and I have had some really bad experiences leaving the parking lots down there but please do something about the traffic. I am rambling here and getting off topic, but what do you think of the proposed, PhillyLive!? For starters....change the name.
