The team that will build Calgary's controversial $550-million arena and event centre has been unveiled. The project is financed by the city and the Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corp. (CSEC), the owners of the Calgary Flames, Calgary Hitmen and Calgary Roughnecks. The arena will be designed by a partnership between local firm Dialog and global firm HOK. The Calgary-based firm also worked on the ICE District project in Edmonton, which fused that city's new arena to a larger mixed-use plan. That echoes the goal of the new Calgary arena, with the dream of an entertainment district that will rise around it.
