About
While the bricks and mortar which have framed the home of Rice basketball for better than 50 years remain, the interior of the fabled arena was transformed into a state-of-the-art facility with the amenities fans have come to expect from new stadiums during a foundation-to-roof renovation which occurred between the spring of 2007 and the fall of 2008 leading up to the opening of the new Tudor Field house complex. Among the new features of Tudor Field house are a club area located behind the upper north end zone seating. The club will also offer a panoramic view of the Rice University campus. A reconfigured seating arrangement includes new mechanized seating along the sidelines which can be retracted for more court space as well as new east end zone seating for Rice students.
Amenities also include a new sound system and game information scoreboard, new concession areas and rest rooms.
