I wouldn't make it a big arena, it's not that big of a town to support it, stock it, or build it in the first place. Maybe a tournament grounds for jousts and arrow-shooting and some melee contests.
Don't worry, I haven't slowed down much!
I've added a bunch of buildings. I want to put in all of the buildings, roads and vegetation, then I'm going to go back and spend a day or so on the shadow layers.
I've got the Lake in and the mayor's keep as well as quite a few other buildings. I also need to plot the outliers [farms mostly] on the bottom of the map. I also have to figure out how I will represent the arena that will go on the first tier in the bottom right of the map. Here is my WIP map:

If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

OK, I worked on this over the weekend and finished it this evening. Once I got the rest of the buildings in, it was all shadowing and labeling while adding some foliage and the fields and orchard.
Do I move this to finished maps or simply add a new post in finished maps with the attachment?
