Renovations at Lenovo Center are progressing with new seating and improved amenities ahead of the NHL season. Changes include reduced aisle space for more seats, new stairs, and railings, along with a refreshed concourse and updated bathrooms. New boards are being installed, and the arena is expected to be ready by September 15 for an event. Phase Two of the project, which will enhance the exterior, is in planning.
