XL Center renovation

Watching 5/3 Arena last night made me ask "Why can't we have nice things like that"?

Yes, they did a great job of transforming an existing on campus building there. It was my first time there Tuesday in a few years, and the ease with which you can get around now, and also see the game from the pavillion's around the seating are great. That used to be a closed off arena, but now it's wide open. They lost a few seats, but picked up a lot of room and concessions. 10 or 11k now in college bball is plenty of capacity.

The guys i was with said they spend 75 million on it, but with today's arena cost particularly for new building that was money well spent. The floor plan now makes future spruce ups fairly easy. If you can get the layout right, it's a good long term investment.
