Bucks Want Milwaukee Theatre Torn Down

Milwaukee Bucks officials apparently want the Wisconsin Center District to tear down the Miller High Life Theatre, formerly known as the Milwaukee Theatre and, before that, the Milwaukee Auditorium. Sources say that after the Bradley Center is demolished the Bucks want a clean entry way from the west to the new entertainment complex being built across the street from the new Bucks arena. The Theatre, which is rarely used, is located between Kilbourn Avenue and State Street and Sixth and Fifth Streets. Bucks President Peter Feigin isn’t responding to my questions about this but both he and team Vice President Alex Lasry have told people they want the Theatre gone. The Center District, under former leadership, spent $50 million to renovate the old Auditorium, a pet project of former board chair Franklyn Gimbel. But the Theatre has been a white elephant with virtually no shows ever held there. The current Center District board is chaired by Governor Walker’s Secretary of Administration Scott Neitzel. That board is currently looking for a new director for the entire district to replace Russ Staerkel. The Business Journal has reported that one of the three finalists for that position is Marty Brooks, a former colleague of Feigin in New York and current head of the stadium and convention district in St. Louis. The other finalists are former Summerfest executive John Boler and Paul Jansen, the current number two person at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. The Wisconsin Center District will oversee everything from the current convention center to the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena to the new Bucks arena. The entertainment district, however, is owned by an investment group assembled by the Bucks. Mark Belling November 21 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com.

INTRODUCTION On March 5, 1985, Jane Bradley Pettit—along with her husband, Lloyd Pettit—announced that she was going to pay for the construction of a new sports arena, the Bradley Center, and donate it to the people of the State of Wisconsin so that they could enjoy and benefit from a state-of-the-art sports facility.1 The announcement was met with much enthusiasm, appreciation, and even marvel due to Mrs. Pettit’s incredible generosity.2 But few, if any, seemed to fully understand and appreciate how unique and extraordinary Mrs. Pettit’s gift was and would become. This lack of awareness was due to at least a few contextual factors. Up until the time of Mrs. Pettit’s announcement, the United States and Canada—where all of the teams in the four major profes- sional sports leagues played3—experienced only a modest number of new * Dean and Donald P.

Eric Church Doesn't Back Down on Holdin' My Own
ERIC CHURCH DOESN’T BACK DOWN ON HOLDIN’ MY OWN TOUR Standing behind his vow to put face-value tickets in fans’ hands, Church cancels secondary market ticket orders and releases them back to the public - Tuesday, Feb 21 at NOON. Tickets available while supplies last for Eric’s show at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles on March 31 at www.AXS.com. Nashville, Tenn. – After witnessing the three-hour, two-set marathon show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center merely weeks ago, Rolling Stone professed, “Eric Church sets the bar.” The exchange in energy with the audience and passion that fuels the man behind the CMA’s Album of the Year is an earned one after years of putting his fans first. Whether it is the dozens in attendance at his first performance in Bethel, New York or the 15,842 in attendance for last month’s breezy night in Brooklyn, it is that unrivaled dedication to surpassing their expectations that is driving another mission: ensuring fans’ hard-earned money is spent fairly on face-value tickets at each and every stop on his 60-plus city Holdin’ My Own Tour. Throughout the Holdin’ My Own Tour, Eric and his team have systematically identified, cancelled and released tickets back to the public that were identified as scalper tickets. Already on the tour, Eric’s management team used a proprietary program to release thousands of tickets back to the public and fans in markets like Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Toronto, Vancouver and Boston. On Feb. 21 at noon local time, the team will release to the official ticketing website all tickets identified as scalper-purchased for the remaining markets back to the public.

Wheaton Chairman, Interdepartmental Degree Program in Real Estate Development I ~ Field$ of Dream$: An Examination of the Effects of Financing Structure on Basketball Facility Design and Surrounding Real Estate Development by James C. Cole, Jr. Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning on August 1, 1997 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Real Estate Development ABSTRACT Spending on basketball arena development in the 1990's will likely exceed $3 billion. Historically, funding for these facilities has come from the public sector. However, the trend is shifting toward a portion, if not all, of the costs being funded by the private sector. This financing shift has implications for the design and siting of the facility as well as surrounding real estate activity and values.
