Inside the Venue At A Glance

01

Mixed

Arrival & transportation

The adjacent rail stop provides a genuine alternative to driving, but late-event service should be checked before committing to it.

02

Mixed

Seat & section strategy

Basketball and arena-football layouts use the floor differently; select from the live map rather than transferring a sightline assumption between sports.

03

Positive

Event-day character

The building's new tenant mix makes it a flexible regional arena rather than a hockey-first destination in the 2026-27 season.
