Sudbury Wolves Sports and Entertainment CEO Dario Zulich and Downtown Sudbury BIA co-chair Jeff MacIntyre are singing city council’s praises this week following their unanimous decision to proceed with a new $200-million arena/events centre in Downtown...

In the 1984 movie, “Star Trek III: The Search For Spock,” a powerful terraforming device called Genesis is dropped on a desolate planet, causing it to explode with life.

“It’s going to make such a splash downtown that it will create a tidal wave of cleanup all the way down Elgin Street, Durham, Cedar, Larch — everywhere,” he said. During Tuesday’s city council meeting, all 13 members of city council voted to greenlight a new-build $200-million arena/events centre in Downtown Sudbury.

Further, Brisbin Brook Beynon Architects founder Murray Beynon told city council that a renovation would not meet all of city council’s expectations, which a new build would. “There's going to be, in a new event centre, levels of service that attract a different socioeconomic level of fan,” Zulich said. “It’s just going to be a different experience for a whole new demographic of people.”

When a past city council voted in 2017 to locate the new arena/events centre on The Kingsway and not downtown, there were developers waiting in the wings who fell by the wayside,” MacIntyre said.
