Made in America Will Reportedly Stay in Philly.

In fact, it will stay on Ben Franklin Parkway after all. As Philly.com reports, the decision came after a meeting between Mayor Kenney and an executive of Jay-Z’s entertainment company, Roc Nation.

“Kenney, who cited neighborhood complaints and other issues as the reason for a change, attributed the flap to miscommunication,” Philly.com writes. “Although the mayor’s office had told Jay-Z’s partners about plans to relocate the event within the city, he said, that message never made it to the boss.”
