South Forsyth site yields major NHL arena plans

An internal email obtained by FOX 5 Atlanta indicates that the development team behind The Gathering at South Forsyth has submitted a final financing packet to the NHL for review, as part of a $3 billion mixed-use development project in Forsyth County, Georgia. The proposal, led by Krause Sports and Entertainment, includes a planned 18,000-seat arena along Ronald Reagan Boulevard aimed at bringing a professional hockey franchise back to metro Atlanta. The developer confirmed the project is moving forward with financing secured from two major capital partners, though it stopped short of officially confirming the submission of a formal NHL proposal.
