New Allentown Arena Provides Fresh New Opportunities

Growth may be a distressing process. It will require change, investment, and in many occasions, plenty of compromise. Allentown residents are recognizing that our home is undergoing a handful of growing pains but fortunately, a range of fresh opportunities is waiting for us on the other side.

The Allentown Hockey Arena project is scheduled to finish in the last quarter of 2013. The end result includes live concert facilities, an events center, a hotel, eating places, and probably a conference hall. These venues are in addition to the arena’s principal function as the upcoming home of the Phantons. Allentown citizens are pleased with the Phantons in general, and it is thrilling to see our minor league hockey players make it to the NHL under the wings of the Philadelphia Flyers.

With the complete results relatively far into the future, the immediate repercussions are sensed more seriously. Over two dozen property owners were ousted from their sites to create space for the project, leaving behind bitter feelings and financial uncertainness in a struggling economic climate. The announcement was obviously a undesirable approach to begin the project, making Allentown residents feel as though a building was more important than town citizens and their livelihoods; excavating the reputation of the arena out of that ethical ditch has been difficult and there is even now work to do. Still residents of the area have been reassured that the disturbances and uprooting of numerous apartment renters and community residents is short-term, and that the final goal is to deliver revenue and jobs to the region.

Mayor Ed Pawlowski aspires to rejuvenate morale and positivity for the project by focusing on the possibilities that await residents on the other end of the construction process:

• Those under immediate impact, the displaced properties owners, are supplied support from city officials to relocate their businesses within the downtown district.
• The center will provide more jobs for residents, including opportunities to independently own restaurants along with other venues inside the center.
• 1-2.5 million visitors and tourists each and every year are expected to head to the arena-and they bring cash to spend! A budding travel and leisure industry can strengthen the economic climate of our small town in unexpected ways.

Seeing current challenges as investments for the future is tough to do. Thankfully for Allentown citizens, this investment provides plenty of worthwhile returns.
