Under Construction: The New Wells Fargo Center

The newly renovated Wells Fargo Center is home to the Philadelphia Flyers, Philadelphia 76ers, and Philadelphia Wings.
Moreover, the Wells Fargo Center ranks among the top 10 sports and entertainment venues in the United States.
In addition, the arena has long served as the home of Structure Tone Philadelphia.
As a result, they are proud to continue a strong partnership with Comcast Spectacor — a relationship that began with LF Driscoll over thirty years ago.

ewly renovated Wells Fargo Center is home to the Philadelphia Flyers, Philadelphia 76ers, and Philadelphia Wings. It ranks among the top 10 sports and entertainment venues in the United States. The arena has also been the long-time home of Structure Tone Philadelphia. They are proud to continue a strong partnership with Comcast Spectacor — a relationship that began with LF Driscoll over thirty years ago.

The Philadelphia club has continued its renovations since 2019.
Structure Tone project executive John Donnelly is leading the efforts.
In early 2023, the crew began by constructing new external canopies at the arena.
Meanwhile, they also launched Phase II of a major site and civil project.
Upgrades include the Event Level Club, performers’ rooms, and staff locker rooms.
Furthermore, renovations cover the 76ers’ and Flyers’ locker rooms and concourse concessions.
In addition, bar updates, event storage, and multiple VIP areas were addressed.
This summer, Donnelly and his team have worked diligently on these improvements.
As a result, they recently received awards for upgrades at the Flyers Training Center in Voorhees, New Jersey.


At every event, 20,000 people get to see what we’re creating, which is fantastic, adds Donnelly. “The owners continue to receive positive comments from fans, which is the biggest pleasure, and people often tell me how amazing it looks.”

The building is upgrading their HVAC system and asked Structure Tone to assist. It involved excavation of existing sidewalk and creation of building openings to increase the air intake for their upgrade.

Tile setters completed waterproofing at the new visitors locker room showers and are getting ready to set new tile.

After constructing the underground infrastructure for the Flyers’ new hydrotherapy room, the team poured the concrete slab for the room above.

The team is preparing to pour the concrete floor slab at the new hydrotherapy tub room. It took a couple months to get out of the ground for this—not pictured is the pit below where all the mechanical infrastructure will be run.
