I was lucky enough to get a mini tour of the arena yesterday to look at some of the new club seats. The club seats will be located where the side concourse is now, there will be two rows of seats. Interesting is that the there will only be one row of center court club seats, and they will be the rear row. In front of that will be ADA seats. The ADA seats will only be located on Edwin C Moses side - due to the shorter distance from the parking lot to those seats.

They are will underway with building the new outer ring concourse. The new terrace suites will have 6 seats and 6 standing seats - 12 tickets total. Those provide a really cool view the court. I think he told me that 2 or 3 have already been purchased for the season. And I think the corporations that purchase those will be able to "brand" each of the terrace suites with their corporate logo. Another interesting thing is that you know those diagonal/corner areas where people stand on the main concourse to watch the game as it is ending to get a quick exit from the arena? They are going to install a long bar type table there with maybe 12 fixed chairs for new seats to sell. They will do that in 2 of the 4 corners. Those will be really cool seats.

First of all I need to say that I drink the UD kool-aid. But I truly believe, when the renovations are complete, there will not be a "cooler" more "unique" place to watch a college basketball game in America. There is no arena like UD Arena. The angles. The intimacy. The design. Most larger arenas are all alike - indistinguishable. UD Arena is truly iconic and a gem.
