With Philadelphia's sports history dating to the mid 1800's, a "classic" museum area will be a major feature in our eventual facility. It includes displays from the most extensive and unique collection of Philadelphia sports artifacts, memorabilia and architectural items. Exhibits will include themed displays, dioramas, video capture for unique photo opportunities and architectural pieces integral
to the design of the building. Using the latest technology and entertainment concepts, the museum will also have a distinctly 21st century flavor. Elements of this include an interactive timeline of Philadelphia sports, digital photo opportunities and an electronic media center where visitors can view or listen to old game broadcasts, television shows, audio, tapes and films. Participatory features include virtual reality, sports simulation areas and the ability to electronically browse through thousands of pages of old programs, newspapers, scorecards, magazines and books.
