Midway Arena is a proposed indoor arena to be constructed in San Diego, California. The development proposal includes the 16,000-seat arena, housing units, a multi-acre urban park, and a mixed-use entertainment, arts, and cultural district.
In 2020, the City of San Diego proposed redeveloping the Midway area sports arena site, a 48.5 acre parcel. Four developers submitted bids and two were chosen to continue the process, with the winning bid belonging to Brookfield Properties. [1] [2] [3] Plans were halted 10 months later when a state agency claimed the city was not in a position to dispose of the land and had not complied to state regulations. [4]
San Diego restarted the application process in 2021 in accordance with state regulations. [5] [6] Seven applications were received, with five chosen to continue the application process, then further narrowed down to three. [7] [8] In 2022, the city chose the development team Midway Rising to redevelop the site. [9] Midway Rising has a two-year window with San Diego to come to terms with the city, however the mayor has the ability extend the agreement for two one-year terms. Both parties can also walk away from the deal at any time. [10]
On June 12, 2023, businessman Stan Kroenke, owner of multiple teams of the major professional sports leagues, joined Midway Rising as its majority investor. [11]
