The facility was originally known during construction as Civic Arena, and this name still appears on most of the directional signs around town. The arena contains 542 club seats, 34 luxury suites, and 5 party suites.〔 ==Design== The Verizon Wireless Arena is located on Elm Street (U.S. Route 3) at the corner of Lake and Granite streets, the latter of which leads directly to Interstate 293 across the Merrimack River. The arena was built on the site of a former Zayre's department store and is located on an irregular block, surrounded by Elm Street (west), Lake Street (north), Chestnut Street (east) and Auburn Street (south), with Cedar (north) and Willow (east) streets taking a corner off the southwestern corner of the block. Before and after events, Lake and Elm Streets will typically be blocked off for pedestrian access. The arena's exterior includes its notable curved blue roof, which helps heavy New Hampshire snowfall to slide off. The top half of the arena's facade is a steel oval, the western side of which is lit during events and is visible from the west side of the city and from Interstate 293. The lower half of the building is red brick, except the main entrance on the western side of the arena, which is entirely glass, providing views of the entry plaza, mills and the West Side. There is also a large window on the main concourse's north side providing views of the Manchester skyline. There are multiple entrance doors on the front side of the arena, and two sets of doors on the eastern side. A large abstract sculpture adorns the southwest lawn of the arena near the corner of Cedar and Elm streets, and the arena's outdoor LED marquee board is located at the corner of Lake and Elm. Drive-in access for larger shows is located on the southeastern corner of the arena, accessible by a gate on Willow Street. The arena's main concourse wraps around the entire arena, with two separate concourses for the upper levels on the north and south sidelines. The main entrance is at a lower level, with the Monarchs Pro Shop, offices and ticket offices located here. The entry level also provides a direct access to a club lounge deck above section 101, which is often used for in-event performances and promotions. The club lounge is located directly above the deck, in lieu of luxury suites. The arena has several luxury boxes, with a second level of boxes on the east and west sides of the interior. The arena has two levels, with the upper deck being curved along the top. The second level of luxury suites on the sidelines raise the upper decks on either side above the level of the end zone upper decks, and as such the four quadrants of the upper deck are essentially separate. The wall above the upper deck is painted tan, with the seats being either tan or red. The arena has a standard four-sided scoreboard, with four video boards and a combination of dot matrix and seven-segment displays. There are also several video ribbons, both in dot-matrix and LED, located along the facades of the end zone upper decks, which serve as alternate scoreboards and occasionally display out-of-town scores. The arena floor level is expandable for larger events by movable seats, and events using an end zone staging area typically use the eastern end zone for the stage. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Verizon Wireless Arena」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
