Tepper's (Panthers Owner) company has declared bankruptcy- new practice facility dead
Posted by TigerintheNO


quote:
The Carolina Panthers' proposed $800 million practice facility project in Rock Hill, South Carolina, is officially dead after team owner David Tepper’s real estate company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in Delaware on Wednesday night.
Tepper, who made billions in hedge funds, is the NFL’s wealthiest owner. The filing will not affect the NFL’s Panthers or Major League Soccer’s Charlotte FC in any way.
It’s unclear at this point what will happen to the half-built practice facility.
Tepper has invested more than $175 million into the facility, which is located about 25 miles south of the team’s current downtown stadium and headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina
quote:
The bankruptcy ends a bitter back-and-forth public disagreement between Tepper and the city of Rock Hill.
Tepper’s company said it negotiated with the city for more than a year, warning them in March they had 30 days or the Panthers would pull out. They said in a statement in April that is “unfortunate that some recently decided to conduct a misguided, destructive public relations campaign to obscure their failures.”
Rock Hill officials responded to the announcement, saying the Panthers' announcement was “misleading and erroneous” and that they embraced the Panthers, welcomed their headquarters to South Carolina and “did everything to make this project a success and has not defaulted on any of our obligations.”
Walking away after spending $175 MM

800M for a practice facility / HQ
Wasn't that long ago you could build an NFL stadium for 800M.

Looks like city of Rock Hill wasn't going to be strongarmed into spending taxpayer dollars on a multi-billionaire's project.

Part true. From what I understand, which isn’t much, Rock Hill had agreed to a massive tax incentive package for the Panthers and intended on following through.
There were apparently delays and miscommunication about the project and then finger pointing about the bond dates.

Yeah if it’s stopping construction of your practice facility it most definitely affects the NFL’s Panthers

All kinds of abandoned shite in that area. That practice facility is probably pretty close to Heritage USA which is in or close to Rock Hill IIRC

Odds are the two sides will come together and try to hammer out a new deal acceptable to both.

Rock Hill is way too nice of a place for the Panthers.

They fired their soccer coach 2 days in the midst of their expansion season when they are playing well

Latest pic I can find from Nov 2021. Building looks to be 1/2 done. They have already started on some interior finishings. Construction was stopped 3/7/2022.

Does it not rain in that part of the country? Would be a pretty shitty design to spend $800M and not have a decently sized indoor facility included
