PALACE AT AUBURN HILLS |
Throughout the
NBA, there are few arenas that have two distinguishing features from other
arenas. The Palace at Auburn Hills is one of the largest arenas in the
NBA and the naming rights to the building have not been sold. For almost
half of a century, the Pistons have called the Detroit metropolitan area
their home. The team moved to the area from Fort Wayne, IN after the
1956-57 season. They played at Cobo Hall and later moved to the Pontiac
Silverdome in 1978. Home of the Detroit Lions (NFL), the Silverdome was
a massive facility for NBA games to be held. By the mid 1980s,
owner of the Pistons, William Davidson, decided to construct a new
basketball arena for his team. A site in Auburn Hills was chosen to
construct the $70 million arena.
