What's this?

Can you put boxes where some of the concession stands are now?


Eliminate a few rows of mid-level seats and use the space occupied by some of the concession stands to create boxes. Move the concessions stands under the arches. You lose a few hundred seats, but the spaces are already there with utilities. You just need to punch an opening on the other side a lose a few seats. The other alternatives are to stack the boxes at the ends of the court and lose seats there or put them up top along the sides. Both would require new structural and utility modifications and probably result in the loss of more seats due to the footprints required for the box foundations.
