On its face, the project will be transforming space at the Arlington Convention Center into something new and different, adaptive and reusable.


so it's just updating and renaming some shite?

I guess it's still good to have

I am curious as to if if they will be able to attract the big players (CS:GO, OWL, LoL, dota2) to host major events there.

perhaps host their own tournaments? "2019 Arlington Fortnite Open"

pretty good for video gaming in general, though. and of course Texas would build the biggest.

I considered editing from "to build" to "renovating a convention center into", but the title just wasn't as catchy.

plus I think it still counts as "building" ?

They'll spend money on this but they farmed out their pathetic excuse for public transportation to what is essentially Uber with vans.
