As reported by the <a title=\"Philadelphia Inquirer\" href=\"https:\/\/articles.philly.com\/2014-05-30\/news\/50185654_1_camden-training-center-sixers-organization\"><em>Philadelphia Inquirer<\/em>,<\/a> the Sixers\u2019 initially wanted to build a 55,000-square-foot facility with two basketball courts, locker rooms, lounge space and broadcast center at the Philadelphia Navy Yard where the team has administrative offices, but that plan fell through.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">After having investigated other relocation options, the Sixers eventually decided on a site located near the Adventure Aquarium and the Susquehanna Bank Center and filed for incentives with the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (EDA). Following EDA\u2019s unanimous decision to grant $82 million in tax credits over the next ten years, the Sixers announced this week they will break ground on their very own training center in October this year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">At 120,000 square feet, the new practice space will become the largest and most advanced facility in the NBA, and will house the team\u2019s basketball and business operations staffs. The massive development project is scheduled for completion in June 2016.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cIt is imperative we are able to provide our players, coaches and staff with the resources necessary for success,\u201d said Sixers co-Managing Owner David Blitzer. \u201cThis facility\u2014the size and scope of which will be unmatched in the NBA\u2014will allow our team to make great strides on and off the court as we work to join the league&#8217;s elite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">According to the Sixers\u2019 announcement, the new training center in Camden will be developed by Philadelphia-based AthenianRazak, while INTECH Construction will serve as the project\u2019s construction manager. Jacobs Global Buildings Design is listed as the architect of record, and Threesixty Architecture will be the consulting design architect.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The Sixers are not the first team to train outside their home city. Last year <a title=\"Redskins Open $10M Training Center in Richmond\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/cities\/richmond-hampton-roads\/redskins-open-10m-training-center-in-richmond\/1004080488.html\"><em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em><\/a> reported that the NFL&#8217;s Washington Redskins opened a $10 million training center in Richmond as part of an economic development\u00a0between the city and Bon Secours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Philadelphia 76ers will break ground on a new practice facility and headquarters building along the Camden waterfront in New Jersey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":258,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21742,1494],"tags":[1815],"class_list":["post-1004098318","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-latest","category-philadelphia","tag-national"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
