Fenway Sports Group Real Estate today announced the name of the new, state-of-the-art performing arts center being developed on the corner of Lansdowne and Ipswich Streets: MGM Music Hall at Fenway.
Working with MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) as the naming rights partner, FSGRE is undertaking its first development project with MGM Music Hall at Fenway. The new performing arts center, which will sit beyond the right field bleachers of Fenway Park, will accommodate approximately 5,000 patrons. In addition to hosting a wide variety of live events, the mixed-use venue will offer the opportunity to partner with local schools, colleges, and other neighborhood organizations to create an epicenter for the performing arts community in Boston.
Construction activities on the project are scheduled to begin later this month and a groundbreaking ceremony was held today with BostonMayor Martin J. Walsh. The MGM Music Hall at Fenway is targeted for completion in the fall of 2021. Here are some photos from the event!
Also happy to be alive today and celebrate 30 years of living.
