Where do the Boston Bruins play?
Since 1995 the Boston Bruins have played at TD Garden, which is a multipurpose arena in Boston. It has a capacity of 17,565 for hockey games. The arena also is also home to the Boston Celtics (NBA) as well as hosting various other concerts and sporting events. It was planned in the early 1990’s to replace the Boston Garden arena, which the Bruins had called home since 1928. Construction took about 2 years and cost approximately $160 million. The arena was renovated during the 2006-2007 season and a new high definition entertainment board was installed.

TD Garden has had many more than 30 names during its short life including; Shawmut Center and FleetCenter. It’s original name, Shawmut Center, did not last very long because the company merged with a larger bank. In fact, the seats were originally stamped with the Shawmut logo. These all had to be replaced before the stadium opened!
