Arguments that the arena will bring jobs for Black Philly residents are all smoke and mirrors. It’s time for us to see the arena project for what it is: another attempt to displace communities of color while falsely claiming it will benefit economic development. #savechinatown

Once a month, via a chartered bus, DC Chinatown's remaining Chinese residents leave the city for the suburbs to grocery shop. Why? There's no familiar, affordable food in their neighborhood. Photos via @tyronefoto wamu.org/story/24/04/16…
When they announced these studies last April (2023) PIDC had a deadline of 6 weeks for the reports to be completed. 😂

Proposed 76 Place may not be all sunshine and roses southphillyreview.com/2024/04/04/pro… via @South Philly Review
This week #76Place faced another design review filled with hours of overwhelmingly negative comments. From day one, Philadelphians have been clear: An arena is not compatible with Center City. inquirer.com/real-estate/co…
🤔Things aren't adding up. @76Place plans to transfer ownership of arena land to the city... and evade paying any property taxes. Is that still the plan? Because that costs Philly taxpayers. #MoreThanAnArena... it's a scam!

@apipennsylvania @76Place Billionaires love a back door subsidy
“Right now, it looks substandard or second-rate” @76Place says they don't need city money but can't pay for a halfway decent proposal or PR team. This is their best standard of work....yikes. City committee unimpressed with 76ers Center City arena plan metrophiladelphia.com/76ers-arena-re…
I think the city deserves more than an undercooked plan, don’t you? Sixers arena project gets harsh critique from city-appointed panel inquirer.com/real-estate/co… via @PhillyInquirer
#76Place did @SEPTA_SOCIAL so dirty... How many mistakes can YOU spot in this transit graphic?
A colleague told me that canvassers in 76Place gear asked if she would like to donate to the building fund for the new arena. Lol 😂 😂 Either @76Place is broke or their paid shills need better wages. Either way, paying people to get signatures to support their arena is crass.
The studies intended to guide Philadelphia’s decision on a new Sixers arena are now months overdue. The agencies involved in producing the reports could not say when they might be shared with the public. inquirer.com/real-estate/co…
*sigh*
One year after studies on 76 Place were announced, the Save Chinatown Coalition will be sharing what the coalition has learned about how sports venue impact studies are weaponized and unreliable sources of information #76Place #SaveChinatown 🧵:
Yup. Who is paying for the economic impact study? They tried to hide it but got caught with their thumbs on the scale.

@neildemause @marksquilla "Nobody is going to open a restaurant or a store just because on 40 nights a year the Sixers are playing there. You need customers the rest of the time. "You’d be far better off building something that’s active all the time: A hospital, a large supermarket." @neildemause
@neildemause @marksquilla Answering a Q, @neildemause says "there is no measurable negative impact when sports teams choose to leave cities" and cites Geoffery Propher from University of Colorado: "Rarely do team owners just straight up leave.” wsls.com/sports/2024/04…
STARTING NOW: Sports venue expert @neildemause briefing @PHLCouncil members and staff. "You can't get economists to agree on anything usually, but the one thing they agree on is that sports venue deals aren't good for the public." #SaveChinatown #NoArena
In reality and correct way to put this out there is #Sixers are giving out tickets they ALREADY OWN. They got outed on Monday selling thousands of their tickets at premiums for first 2 home games and knowing Knicks fans would buy them. Nice they are giving them away but Just…
Sixers say owners Josh Harris, David Blitzer, and David Adelman, plus Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, are purchasing and distributing more than 2,000 tickets to Sixers fans to Game 6. The tickets will be distributed to first responders, health care professionals, community groups,…
literally crying in the club (my office)
I’ve been released & am at the hospital to be checked out for injuries. A cop grabbed my dress & ripped it half off my body, injuring my arm. Another put his hands around my throat from behind to get me on the ground.
What’s transpired over the last 24 hours across this country is a historical moment where the desire to sustain profit makers (universities) and completely erase students and faculty is nakedly on display. #AUniversityWithoutPeople
Vile and violent! #CeasefireNOW
200+ pro-Israel counterprotestors are attacking the @UCLA pro-Palestinian encampment. They started beating on one student and stomped another under a plywood board per @latimes @safinazzal on the scene. Where is UCLA security?
This is only allowed to happen during a playoff series when you price out an already alienated fan base. Great job @david_adelman you're fuckin crushing it dude

I proudly stand with @Aramark workers at the Wells Fargo Center as they STRIKE for healthcare and wages to keep up with rising costs. Every worker deserves access to healthcare and family-sustaining wages. Let’s join them in their fight for justice.
