Is there any update on the Entertainment District? They have announced it for a decade now and nothing seems happening.

It costs a billion and it will be very cool for Orlando Magic fans and Orlando Citizens.

Btw what about our new Practice Facility? Is it opening this offseason?

Also UCF's Marcus Jordan's Trophy Room just opened in downtown Orlando

I'm pretty sure I heard someone (maybe Fultz) recently talk about seeing the new practice facility.

The practice facility was expected to open next month (May). Walking by it, they look to be on track. Just as long as it’s ready for draft workouts.

The last entertainment complex update I had heard came from Martins late last year that they were supposed to break ground on it in May. But this project has been delayed forever, and it’s at least the 5th ‘we’re starting update’ I’ve heard tied to this. It’s really harmed Church Street and downtown as a whole that this still isn’t running. For now, it’s a temporary paved parking lot.
