The arena was opened in September 2017, costing $862.9 million to build. This concourse remains open all year round, enabling it to be used as a venue even when no events are going on within the arena. With buildings including the box office for the arena, the offices of the Red Wings and housing retail outlets all connected beneath this unusual glass roof, forming an indoor concourse, the Little Caesars Arena design features a truly one-of-a-kind layout.
Located at 2645 Woodward Avenue, with a capacity of 19,515 for ice hockey and 20,491 for basketball, the Little Caesars Arena is part of the District Detroit, a 50-block wide area of parks, restaurants, bars and facilities, to which it is connected by a unique concourse with a glass roof.
