New Fairgrounds Plan Would Demolish Coliseum
 
Memphis Mayor A C Wharton Jr. has outlined a $185 million plan for redevelopment of the Mid-South Fairgrounds. The plan, which is still tentative, would demolish the Mid-South Coliseum, unused for the last four years because its seating and other features don’t comply with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Lipscomb estimated renovation of the coliseum would cost $30 million versus $26 million for a new facility. The plan envisions a new, much smaller 5,000-seat multi-use sports facility elsewhere on the property. The old site of the Libertyland amusement park would keep much of its green space and trees to become Liberty Park.
