County postpones arena open house
Monday January 9, 12:35 pm ET
The downtown arena open house scheduled for Thursday in the Bank of America building lobby has been postponed, Sedgwick County officials say.
The open house, scheduled to discuss the amenities planned for the new arena, has been postponed in the wake of a commission visit Sunday and Monday to Alltel Arena in Little Rock, Ark.
Alltel, which opened in 1999, is the newest of the one-concourse arenas constructed in the United States. Commissioners had budgeted $89 million to build a one-concourse arena in Wichita, but the county's designers, Arena Design Consortium, are recommending a two-concourse building with a $115 million price tag.
The open house has not been rescheduled.
