BRADLEY CENTER IN NEED OF RENOVATIONS FOR MORE BUCKS?

          Bradley Center Board of Directors Chair James Forbes
     said that the 18,000-seat arena "needs club seating and
     other amenities to increase income," according to Hajewski &
     Lank of the MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL.  Bradley Center
     President David Skiles said that plans are also "in the
     works" for an addition to the arena that would include
     "retail venues, a sports theater, restaurant and event
     facilities," making the Bradley Center "a destination for
     more than just sports and entertainment events."  Skiles
     "declined to put a price tag" on the upgrades, and said,
     "It's too early to give a number."  Bradley Center execs
     "made no direct request for public funding Monday," though
     Skiles added that "anything is a possibility."  The 11-year-
     old facility is owned by the Bradley Center Sports &
     Entertainment Corp., a non-profit group formed by the WI
     legislature (JOURNAL SENTINEL, 4/13).
