After more than a year of analyzing Dallas sites for their planned multi-billion-dollar arena and entertainment district, the Mavericks have chosen Valley View, dealing a major setback to efforts to bring the project downtown.
The Mavericks on Monday executed option agreements to purchase approximately 104 acres of the 110-acre former site of Valley View Mall, the franchise told our partners at The Dallas Morning News in an emailed statement.
It’s a seismic decision that could reshape Dallas’ sports and entertainment landscape for decades, upending the city’s NBA franchise from its 46-year epicenter by moving it and its games 13 miles to the north. From urban to near-suburbia.
“The Valley View site meets most of the criteria established at the outset of our evaluation process. It is our goal to stay in the City of Dallas and this is our best option to do so,” the Mavericks said in the statement.
