Part 3 Room to grow
BERKELEY—Built in 1933. The old Harmon Gym on the University of California campus held only 6,578 bench-style seats. With every basketball game being sold out since 1987. thousands of people were on the waiting list for season tickets.
A $40 million project will transform the old gym into the Walter A. Haas Jr. Pavilion by increasing seat capacity, seismically upgrading the facility's infrastructure and retrofitting all mechanical and electrical systems.
To create the space for additional seating, the walls of the existing facility were expanded, the roof raised, and a new seating bowl was built around and on top of the existing infrastructure. One challenge was the physical layout of the site. which was severely limiting due to inaccessibility on two out of the four sides of the building. The project, which began in the fall of last year, is scheduled for completion in time for the next basketball season. When completed, the facility will house 12,000 fans. New press boxes, locker rooms, student exercise facilities, concession areas, and an 8.000-square-foot VIP room will be added to the facility. New mechanical and lighting systems, as well as audiovisual systems, also will be added.
Notes:
room - здесь: пространство, место;
gym (= gymnasium) - спортзал;
season ticket - абонемент;
to transform into - превратить в...;
capacity - здесь: вместимость;
seismically upgraded - сейсмоустойчивый;
facility - здесь: сооружение, здание, помещение;
facilities (pl.) - удобства, оборудование; возможности;
space - здесь: пространство, место;
