Permits have been issued for the construction of a single-story entertainment platform at 1300 Pattison Avenue in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex. The project, part of the Xfinity Live! campus, is being developed by The Cordish Companies with design by Perkins Eastman. Gilbane Building Company is listed as the contractor, with the City of Philadelphia and Spectrum Arena Corporation as site owners.
Construction costs are listed at $300,000, covering general work and site assembly for the stage platform, which will reuse components from an earlier structure on-site.

Zoning approval allows the construction of four detached structures on the property, including a two-story pavilion, two one-story bars, and one event stage. The newly approved structure will span 1,768 square feet across a single story, housing a stage, green room, and associated back-of-house facilities. No excavation beyond 60 inches will occur, and all work will be performed in accordance with approved structural plans. The design rises to a roof height of 29 feet, with an interior mezzanine level at 15-and-a-half feet, and a landscaped terrace level at one-and-a-half feet above grade. The complex will also feature 48 new parking spaces, including seven accessible and two van-accessible stalls, for a total of 230 on-site spaces. The plan further provides seven bicycle parking spaces, with no signage authorized under this approval.

Interior design is divided among several firms, with Knauer overseeing the Beer Garden and Crush Bar, and RD Jones handling the VIP and AVA lounge interiors. The stage connects directly to surrounding hospitality components, including the PBR Bar, Beer Garden, and Crush Bar, forming part of the site’s integrated event network. The VIP level incorporates enclosed lounges and balcony seating overlooking the main performance area.

Located at the intersection of Pattison Avenue and South 11th Street, the project sits adjacent to Citizens Bank Park, Lincoln Financial Field, and the Wells Fargo Center. The new entertainment pavilion will reinforce the area’s role as a year-round destination for sports, dining, and live performances.
