Oilers choose ICON as Project Manager for YEG Arena

Good read over at the Oilers official site about the new arena project:

The City of Edmonton and the Katz Group have selected ICON Venue Group (ICON) as project manager for Edmonton's proposed downtown arena. In the last 10 years, ICON has been project manager for nine new arenas, including Pittsburgh, New Jersey, Phoenix, and Denver.


“We are pleased to have a company with the credentials and experience that ICON brings to this project,” said Rick Daviss, the City’s newly-appointed Executive Director of the Downtown Sports and Entertainment District Project. “We continue to work on Council’s direction of getting to 60% design and getting a guaranteed maximum price and ICON has a strong history of being able to deliver exceptional design and, should we proceed to construction, of delivering projects on-time and on-budget.”

Rumor has them breaking ground in April of 2013.
