Amalie Arena (motor oil since 1903) no more. Tampa Bay Lightning’s stadium has just been renamed.
Staring at the building, thinking to myself: it looks like Amalie Arena, the location fits too.
From Ice Palace to Amalie Arena to Benchmark International, a Tampa-based mergers & acquisitions firm, with 15 officies worldwide. Their hq is at 401 Channelside Dr, Tampa, FL 33602 4030 West Boy Scout Blvd, Suite 500, Tampa, FL 33607.
