No stadium in West Chester
While I was sitting in other meetings last night, the developer interested in the Wyeth property held a community meeting to update residents regarding concepts for the site.
According to our reporter that was there, the developer, Pennsylvania Real Estate Invest Trust (PREIT), no longer wants a baseball stadium on the site. Office space, restaurants, residences, a hotel and a movie theater were discussed.
Anyways, for a more comprehensive article on the changes to the plans, check out the article that will be running in the DLN at some point over the next few days.
Also keep in mind these plans could change, and council has not approved anything yet. PREIT may not even be the developer to eventually construct something on the site. But it looks like we won't have to ponder the perfect name for a West Chester minor league baseball team.

Thank goodness. A baseball stadium was such a half-baked idea in the first place. Everybody knows that what West Chester needs in the borough is a hotel. That is what should go there.
A hotel in the borough........yes!
A hotel on the Wyeth property....... talk about half baked!
