Boston Herald: Bruins’ practice rink striking glass
The Boston Bruins’ new practice facility at New Balance’s Boston Landing project complements the high-glass design of the athletic footwear company’s adjacent headquarters, according to preliminary renderings filed with the city.
The rink’s glass facade will allow travelers along the Massachusetts Turnpike, which it fronts, to see into the Brighton practice facility for peeks of its stands and ceiling banners.
The preliminary designs by Boston’s Elkus Manfredi Architects show the NHL team’s trademark spoked B logo figuring prominently on the building’s exterior.
The rink, which will include about 650 seats, concessions and Bruins locker room and training space, is set for completion in 2016.
