Monday afternoon, project Re!magine Spectrum Center began. The arena has officially closed its door and will not re-open until October 2nd for the Aerosmith concert.
“We may be knocking things down here beginning today, but brick-by-brick we plan to build the Hornets into an elite organization. We look forward to the future of our team, our arena and our city center,” HSE Co-Chairman and Alternate Governor Gabe Plotkin told Matt Rochinski of Hornets.com. “While we’ve only been here a short time with (HSE Co-Chairman and Governor) Rick (Schnall), myself and the ownership group, there’s one thing we quickly learned – Charlotte is an amazing city filled with incredible people, and we are truly blessed to lead this franchise.
