6 Plans are under way for the Saint Louis University Arena. So is the fund raising. HOME-COURT ADVANTAGE Above: A rendering of the exterior of the Saint Louis University Arena. Above right: A view of the arena court and seats.
You can’t quite hear the roar of the crowd. Yet. But you can feel the excitement. That’s because Billiken alumni, fans and boosters no longer have to imagine what the Saint Louis University Arena will look like — they can actually see the plans. Designed to complement SLU’s campus architecture, arena plans call for a seating capacity of 13,000; private suites; loge “suites”; club seating with adjacent hospitality area; designated student seating sections; two concourses; concession stands; athletic training rooms; the Billiken Hall of Fame; Billiken merchandise and apparel outlets; and much more. The main concourse will have amenities to create an exemplary experience for fans: numerous and spacious rest rooms, ample concessions and grilles, thematic food and beverage carts and the team store. The lower bowl, containing almost 60 percent of the seating, will be accessed from the main concourse. A separate upper concourse will serve the upper bowl seating. This upper concourse will feature the same level of spectator amenities as the main concourse, including a team store. The basketball and event floor is 36 feet below the main concourse, creating great sightlines. A large club and meeting area has been planned midway between the two floors. This allows direct access from center court seats to the club, creating an intimate experience for club seat patrons. The Saint Louis University Arena also is designed to be a true resource for the University and for the community. The facility will welcome a broad array of events each year. In addition to SLU basketball games, the multipurpose campus events center also would be the site of SLU commencements; national conferences and conventions; concerts; family shows and circuses; cultural events, such as dance presentations, speakers and stage shows; religious gatherings; high school athletic games and tour- 7
