Content Description
The Capital Centre (later renamed the USAir Arena in 1993 and the U.S. Airways Arena in 1996) was built in Landover, Maryland in 1974. The sports arena and concert venue served as a key community center for Marylanders and Washingtonians until its demolition in 2002. This collection documents the Capital Centre through the lens of the community that worked, volunteered, and attended events through the venue. The collection contains employee handbooks and uniforms, photographs, event ephemera, publications, and commemorative memorabilia donated by community members in 2017.
