September 20, 2018 | Vol. 4, Issue 38 Letter from the Mayor
Dear Washingtonians,

This Saturday, join me as we cut the ribbon on the brand new Entertainment and Sports Arena in Congress Heights.

With this ribbon-cutting, we celebrate not just the opening of a state-of-the-art sports and entertainment facility, but the promise and opportunity that this project brings to the St. Elizabeths East campus. The Entertainment and Sports Arena is the home our Mystics deserve. But this project is even bigger than basketball. The ESA is about jobs, opportunity, and community; it’s about ensuring that every neighborhood, in every corner of our city has world-class housing and amenities.

With Mystics and Capital City Go-Go games and special events like the recently announced Mary J. Blige and Cage the Elephant concerts, the ESA will attract hundreds of thousands of new visitors to Congress Heights each year. Over the next 20 years, the arena will bring in $90 million in new tax revenues - revenues we can use to fund critical programs for Washingtonians. In an area where we are already focused on building more high quality, affordable housing, the new arena will attract retail and drive investment - creating new jobs and opportunities for nearby residents and small businesses.

Coming into office, my team and I committed to moving this project forward and working with residents to design an arena with programming that matches the needs and interests of our community. On Saturday, we celebrate all that we have accomplished together and the opportunities the Entertainment and Sports Arena will bring to our city.

Sincerely,
They gentrifying another part of the city huh?
