Jazz to do Arena upgrades

Gameface said:
I imagine a huge part of the focus will be on adding more suites. That'll be fine and dandy for people in suites and the lower bowl but it'll push the upper bowl further away.

I heard the company doing the remodel will be the one that did a remodel in Sacramento. I think it was Sacramento, anyway. So, anyone know what their arena looks like post-remodel?

ugh

The upper bowl is already terrible. I'd rather they rebuilt the Arena and made it more shallow. Put more seats in the lower bowl and improve the viewing angle from the upper bowl.

Srsly I know some of you love to praise the Arena's design but I think it's ****.

Someone was telling me that they considered building a new arena, but close to City Creek.

Side note, is anyone else completely unimpressed with City Creek? I've been there twice and there's pretty much nothing I want there and I don't think it's even all that appealing visually or aesthetically.

Did you ever go to Crossroads or ZCMI?(or main while they were still up) I'm pretty impressed with what City Creek has done for downtown. The residential component was huge for the city as was opening up the blocks. Regent street is reworking itself from a **** alleyway into a really cool mid block street from City Creek to Gallivan. It would not have happened if the church didn't line its mall up with that street.

I'm not big on the mall either but what the lds church did for downtown was really cool and no one else could have gotten it done or would have bothered to try.

Malls aren't really my thing, but I think City Creek is pretty nice. My girl's love it.
 
The news of stadium upgrades actually bums me out. I'd rather see them stand pat and then build a new stadium in about a decade. I remember just a couple of years ago, while they we're making huge upgrades to the locker rooms and adding the new Jumbotron, Randy Rigby said they felt that with the upgrades, they could get 20 more years out of that arena.

Depending on what they do now, I may not see a new arena in my lifetime.
