Downtown Phoenix Could See Sporting Venue Shift

Three of the Valley’s four professional sports teams could be in the market for a new place to play.

Coyotes’ ownership has talked about potentially leaving Gila River Arena in Glendale; the Suns say they need improvements at Talking Stick Resort Arena in downtown Phoenix; the Diamondbacks are currently in a dispute with Maricopa County about renovations at Chase Field. The region’s sport scene could be shifting.

Don Keuth, president of Phoenix Community Alliance, spoke about the potential changes.
