TD Garden in Boston
History
Also known as the Boston Garden or just as The Garden, TD Garden is a renowned arena located in Boston, Massachusetts. The multi-purpose arena was named after TD Bank, its sponsor. The arena officially opened its doors as TD Garden in 1995 and came to be referred to as TD Banknorth Garden and FleetCenter. It was opened to replace the previous arena: The Boston Garden. It is situated right above the Massachusetts Bay Transport Authority’s North Station. The recent explosion in development has brought a new entertainment venue to the Garden. Big Night Live is a place for live music and nightlife in Boston.
Delaware North owns the arena that serves as home to the National Hockey League’s Boston Bruins as well as the Boston Celtics, a team in the National Basketball Association. TD Garden hosts the annual tournament of the Beanpot College Hockey. It is also the site of the Hockey East Championships, an event that is held at the venue annually. Several major national sporting tournaments have been hosted at the venue over the course of its operation. Some of the notable sporting events that have been hosted at the arena include the NCAA Division I Basketball regionals, Elite Eight, Sweet Sixteen and the Frozen Four among others.
Plans to build an arena at the spot started in the late ‘70s, when the Bruins were in search of an arena. At that time, The Boston Garden was fast approaching its 50s and the Jacobs Family, the then owners of the venue were interested in erecting a 17,000-seat arena. There were unsuccessful plans to move the team Salem in New Hampshire. They continued their stay at The Boston Garden after their relocation plans failed.
Raymond Flynn and the Boston Redevelopment Authority granted Delaware North, owner of the Boston Garden rights to build a new arena in 1985. The project was however delayed by the poor economic times faced during the time. Delaware North announced on the 8th of May, 1992 that it had received funding for the arena’s construction. The funding was secured in the form of loans totaling $120 million and was split evenly between Shawmut National Corporation, Bank of Boston and Fleet Bank of Massachusetts. The construction of the arena was further delayed by challenges posed by the Massachusetts Senate. This dragged on until February 26th, 1993 when a bill allowing the construction was passed by the Legislature.
The construction of the arena was commenced officially on April 29, 1993. Its plans placed it a little to the north of the previous facility. Upon completion of the construction however, there was only 9” between the new venue and the old one. It covered an area of 3.2 acres and cost a sum of $160 million.
