A museum dedicated to all sports is coming to Philly.

And while it may seem like a coincidence, the timing couldn’t be better coming on the heels of a Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl victory.

Plans for the museum were announced on Wednesday, calling for a 25,000-square-foot facility at the Jetro warehouse at 700 Pattison Avenue in South Philly, near all of the sports stadiums. The museum is eyeing a spring 2019 opening, writes Melissa Romero for curbed.philly.com.

EwingCole also designed the Phillies’ stadium, Citizens Bank Park.
