Students selected one of seven different sites for a new home for either the Ice Bears Hockey Team or the Smokies Minor League Baseball Team.  As part of the design research, students tried to program the new facility in such a way that the new design contributed to urban life throughout the year, not just on game days.  Sites were strategically located on under-utilized land near exisiting or future pedestrian networks and greenways connected to Downtown Knoxville.
