New York City plans to create the largest indoor ice facility in the world, with a former Deutsche Bank AG asset manager investing $275 million to turn a vacant Bronx armory into a 750,000-square-foot skating palace.

KNIC Partners LLC, founded by Kevin Parker, a former asset management head at Germany’s largest bank, will transform the Kingsbridge Armory into a center with nine regulation-size rinks expected to attract 2 million visitors a year, city officials said. The first five rinks are set to open in late 2018.
