A report outlining a series of recommendations to create an entertainment district in downtown Phoenix is set to be delivered to a City Council subcommittee Wednesday.
The consultant firms HR&A Advisors and Multistudio handled the report, aiming to enhance areas around the convention center, Chase Field and Mortgage Matchup Center.
The Downtown Phoenix Entertainment District Implementation Plan makes a series of recommendations like improving walkability between the sites and potentially building a new hotel downtown.
The consultants also recommended the city build new sites and host more events, like pop-up music performances, to create more attractions for visitors.
The city’s Economic Development and Arts subcommittee would have to recommend it to council before it could be adopted.
