Coast Coliseum buying nearby homes to expand parking
SUMMARY: The Mississippi Coast Coliseum is planning to expand parking, which will require the demolition of the Oakmont Place neighborhood. Residents are not happy about losing their homes, but the Coliseum sees it as a necessary development. The Pops Ferry Road Extension will also impact the neighborhood. The Coliseum is purchasing homes in the area to make room for more parking spaces, as the current 2900 spaces are not enough for the events held at the venue. The project is moving forward despite funding challenges, with the Coliseum applying for $4.5 million in Gulf Coast restoration funds to help offset costs.
Mississippi Coast Coliseum intends to purchase 17 homes to demolish and expand its property to the west.
