“Major development talks revolve around basketball in Dallas, San Antonio”

Chris Kratovil was quoted in the Spectrum News article, “Major development talks revolve around basketball in Dallas, San Antonio.” The article examines redevelopment debates in Dallas and San Antonio involving downtown sports venues and aging civic infrastructure. In Dallas, officials are considering the future of City Hall as repair costs soar, while the Mavericks explore potential arena plans tied to the site. Meanwhile, San Antonio leaders are advancing “Project Marvel,” a proposed downtown entertainment district centered around a new Spurs arena.

Kratovil voiced support for keeping the Mavericks in downtown Dallas while also preserving City Hall, saying he would ideally like to see the team remain in the urban core “without tearing down City Hall.”
