Seventh Annual ALSD Design & Build Conference Highlights Hunden's Data-Driven Predictions in Major League Sports Facilities

CHICAGO, August 8, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Hunden Partners (Hunden), a full-service, national real estate development advisory practice, presented its latest State of the Industry findings at the 2023 Association of Luxury Suite Directors (ALSD) Design & Build Conference, which took place July 9-11, 2023, at the JW Marriott in Indianapolis. Hunden's annual State of the Industry report highlights data-driven predictions and trends in major league sports facilities.

Rob Hunden, Hunden's President & CEO, presented the findings to attendees, including statistics on facility development and renovation expenditures, specific profiles of all new and proposed major league facilities, and cost trends. Globally, the spectator sports market is a $185.34 billion industry in 2023, and premium seating and experiences are an essential contributor to revenue generation for pro and college teams. 

"Premium seating directors are charged with managing one of the most crucial revenue sources at major venues, and it's imperative that they stay abreast of trends, opportunities, and challenges affecting sports facilities and event hospitality," says Hunden. "We've enjoyed our partnership with the ALSD and will continue to share our expertise to support its members' success."

Highlights from Hunden's State of the Industry report include:

1. Major League Sports Projects: In 2023, there are about $4.5 billion worth of major league sports projects under construction. The total spending on new major league facilities is increasing, despite fewer venues being constructed.
2. Cost per Venue: The average cost per new venue across the three most recent openings varies across different leagues. The NFL has the highest average cost at $2.8 billion, followed by MLB at $1.6 billion, NBA at $1.3 billion, NHL at $946 million, and MLS at $643 million.
3. Renovations:  Over the past 10 years, an average of nearly $1 billion has been spent per year in major league renovations across the five leagues. 
4. New Builds and Renovations in Major Leagues: The report provides updates on new builds and renovations in each of the major sports leagues, including NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, and MLS.

Hunden also presented insights on mixed-use district trends and the increasing role they play in funding and development models for new major league venues. Mix-used districts have been proposed or initiated in several major league efforts, including: 

1. Houston Astros Minute Maid Park 
2. Cleveland Browns
3. Rogers Place ICE District (Edmonton, Canada)
4. San Jose Sharks SAP Center 
5. Honda Center Entertainment District (Anaheim, CA)

"Team owners see a diversified asset base of real estate as key to estate planning, especially if the team is their primary asset," explained Hunden. "More important, these districts create a sustainable mixed-use neighborhood model if well-conceived and executed, as well as a basis for new tax funding streams for any public investment in the area."

Online CHANGE.ORG/ReclaimTheRedskins Petition Goes Viral With Bipartisan Support

NEW YORK, August 7, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Today, the Native American Guardian's Association (NAGA) President, Eunice Davidson, issued a demand letter (available on EducateNotEradicate.org) to the Washington "Commanders" owners and key leadership as part of NAGA's "Educate Not Eradicate" National Advocacy Campaign against cancel culture. The letter cites the "Commanders" willful denial of U.S. history and the Native American components of the founding of America and U.S. Constitution. NAGA has also co-sponsored an online petition that can be found at CHANGE.ORG/ReclaimTheRedskins, which went viral with support from Americans across the nation.

"The organic growth of this petition proves our position is the right one," said Healy Baumgardner, Senior Advisor to NAGA and President of Global Impact Campaigns. "We intentionally did not insert politics into this online petition, and the demographics prove that cancel culture is not accepted by most Americans. For the Commanders' owners and leadership to make such a short-sighted decision to cancel the Redskins based on their self-created DEI and ESG feelings without listening to their consumers is not only offensive, it's pure insanity. How did that work out for Bud Light? Not so well," Baumgardner added.

The letter states (excerpts): "The Native American Guardian's Association (NAGA) has developed a 'Promise to ALL AMERICANS' as a statement of principle and policy. All Americans ... should be eager to stand up for the dignity of EVERY AMERICAN that is under assault in today's increasingly nonsensical culture wars. This is a 'LINE IN THE SAND' pledge that reinforces undeniable history of the NATIVE AMERICAN assisting the founding of the United States with Native American principles used by the Founding Fathers in the United States Constitution — and, EVERY AMERICAN's right to the 1st and 14th, and every Amendment to the Constitution and not be targets of the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) and Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) cancel culture environment.

"Americans see they are losing their rights because of a vicious cancel culture that shows little care for their concerns or civil liberties; It is time to support leaders, brands and organizations who will stand with EVERY AMERICAN, rather than fighting against them."

NAGA further cites its fact-based wins supporting cases in the state and federal courts: "In 2015, our organization filed an amicus brief on behalf of The Redskins in support of their successful First Amendment case, which overruled a finding by the U.S. Patent Office that the name could not be registered as a trademark because it was derogatory. Our fact-based arguments have won in both state and federal courts that NBC Sports even headlined 'Redskins win trademark fight over name as Justice Department gives up' (by Charean Williams, published June 29, 2017). In fact, we strongly disputed that conclusion and, indeed, a subsequent poll by The Washington Post released in July 2016 indicated that 90% of American Indians agreed with us. You simply cannot erase history and target the Native American community by eradicating the name 'Redskins' while being an organization that fosters other Constitutional rights, including players who don't honor the American Flag and kneel during our National Anthem."

"In 2023 America, this oppression, and arbitrary and capricious recognition of U.S. history and Constitutional rights is not acceptable. We are standing our ground. If you don't acknowledge history, we are doomed to repeat it. The coin has been tossed; we choose to honor and defend," stated Eunice Davidson, NAGA President.

NAGA encourages all Americans to visit www.EducateNotEradicate.org and join our movement.
