A sudden reversal in plans to move the 76ers' arena to near Philadelphia’s Chinatown has left activists breathing a little easier while still feeling some distrust.

A Chinatown community that believed its ruination lay in the planned construction of a new Sixers arena rejoiced on Sunday as the team abandoned its efforts to build on the neighborhood’s southern doorstep.

The Philadelphia 76ers will partner with Comcast Spectacor to build a new arena in South Philadelphia and abandon a deal to move downtown.
