Orlando Magic Tickets |
Atlanta Hawks Tickets |
Beginning around 2002, the Orlando Magic and the City of Orlando have been in discussions for a complete refurbishment or demolition of the TD Waterhouse Centre in favor of a new facility. As of 2005, negotiations have stalled. In recent years, arena and city officials had reported revenue losses, and criticized the facility for not being large enough compared to more recently constructed arenas. The media has offered rumors that the Orlando Magic may relocate to another city (Kansas City and Hartford, Connecticut are rumored possibilities), but team officials have denied such claims.
It is home to the
Orlando Magic of the NBA and the Orlando Predators of the Arena Football
League. The name of the building changes for Predator games, and becomes
"The Jungle". It is also the former home of the IHL's Orlando Solar
Bears. Completed in 1989 at a cost of $98 million - entirely publicly
financed - the arena seats 17,248 for basketball and has 26 luxury
suites. The naming rights were sold in 2000 to TD Waterhouse at $7.8
million for five years. It is also used for entertainment events,
particularly large rock concerts.
