NEW YORK (AP) — After three years and $1 billion, Madison Square Garden has been remade.
The home of the NBA’s Knicks and NHL’s Rangers has been updated for the realities of sports in the 21st century.
That means there’s no shortage of luxury suites and premium seating, and sponsorships are helping pay for it all. The most striking aspect of the renovation, however, is the presence of two “bridges” that fly high above the seating bowl, almost scraping the arena’s familiar wagon-wheel ceiling.
The bridges contain seats that perch fans in what used to be empty air over the seating bowl. There are bars and new concession areas at either end.
