"Long delayed and now postponed again, this music venue will not open this year because its host site and parent company, Avant Gardner, filed for bankruptcy, with the company stating, "The decision to file for Chapter 11 relief follows several months of financial distress." It had been slated to open in May with a food hall curated by Smorgasburg, but the first day was canceled at the last minute over permitting issues, followed by continued postponements and relocated concerts; during the turmoil, CEO Josh Wyatt was fired. The new goal is to open in 2026, while the existing venues on the property, Great Hall and Kings Hall, are supposed to stay open." - Nadia Chaudhury
