Carmelo1.jpgYes that's right; Carmelo is literally dropping 300,000 dimes which is equivalent to 3 million dollars!  You might ask, what is this money going too?  That would be the new Carmelo K. Anthony Center where Syracuse University men's and women's basketball tea ms will practice.  The Melo' Center will consist of 54,000 square feet of space with 13,750 square feet of basketball court.  This mind-blowing piece or architecture will also feature state of the art weight training facilities along with a hall of fame and athletic staff offices.

This $19 million dollar facility is not only an incredible piece of art, it is also considered to be an incredibly green building.  Some key aspects that make this building meet the green criteria consist of; it uses 20% less energy than a standard newly built building along with 20% less water usage.  The structure also consists of mainly recycled material.  Now all that's left to be added in completion of the building is another National Championship trophy.
