Dear Rangers Season Subscriber,
As a loyal Rangers Season Subscriber, we wanted to take this opportunity to update you on the transformation of Madison Square Garden. As you know, we are currently underway on a comprehensive, top-to-bottom transformation that will provide a significantly enhanced experience for all of our customers, and turn The World’s Most Famous Arena into the world’s most state-of-the-art arena. For the past several months construction workers have been at The Garden working around the clock preparing the building for the extensive work that lies ahead.
The Transformation will be a year-round project, sequenced to maximize construction efforts during the next three summers when The Garden will be shutdown. The Garden will remain open for the Knicks and Rangers regular seasons, and you may see construction areas throughout the building during this time. When the transformation is complete we will unveil a brand new interior, from the first seat to the last, within the iconic Garden exterior. The only thing you will recognize inside the building is The Garden's signature ceiling.
The many significant upgrades for all our guests will include, a brand new 7th Avenue entrance, significantly wider concourses, several new first-class food and entertainment amenities, improved sightlines, more comfortable seating, a dynamic new scoreboard, state-of-the-art lighting, sound and LED video systems in HD, fiber optic cabling throughout the building, new suites, clubs and hospitality areas, new one-of-a-kind bridges, and views of the city from several areas of the building.
This is a great project for New York, by funding the Transformation ourselves we are providing more than 2.6 million union labor work hours. More importantly, this is a great project for you, the most valued members of our MSG family. I can assure you that your dedication and commitment to the Rangers will be something you value even more when you have the opportunity to experience a game at the transformed Garden.
As we continue to move forward with the Transformation, you will receive regular communications and updates from us on the progress of construction and anything that may affect your experience at The Garden. We have assembled a team of Transformation Service Experts to assist you with any questions or issues that arise. Further updates are available online (www.nyrsubcentral.com) which includes answers to many Frequently Asked Questions. Our goal is to make sure you are fully informed throughout this entire process.
We are excited to share this significant moment in our history with our most loyal fans. Thank you for your unparalleled support - we have no doubt that the transformed Garden will meet your greatest expectations and continue to provide many defining moments in Rangers history.
Once again, thank you for your support and commitment to the New York Rangers, we look forward to seeing you at The Garden this season.
Sincerely,
Scott O’Neil
President
