FEDEXFORUM

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Fedexforum is home of the Memphis Grizzlies NBA basketball team. The franchise played in Vancouver, British Columbia, from 1995 to 2001 before moving to Memphis. Here the Grizzlies played at Pyramid Arena for three seasons until the $250 million FedExForum opened in 2004. The dome-shaped arena features the history of music in Memphis throughout the building, with various murals, pictures and music-themed restaurants and clubs. According to the arena website, it also is the first in the NBA to have "see through" shot clocks, allowing fans behind the baskets to see play without the clocks blocking their view. FedExForum also is home to the University of Memphis Tigers.
