TD Banknorth Garden To Host Democratic National Convention

July 26th, 2004

BOSTON, Mass.– The Ellerbe Becket–designed TD Banknorth Garden plays host to the Democratic National Convention here the week of July 26 - 29. The 755,000 sf sports and entertainment complex opened in 1995 and is home to the NBA Celtics and NHL Bruins. Much more than a professional sports venue, the FleetCenter was designed with flexibility in mind.

The building has hosted concerts, ice shows, wrestling, college hockey tournaments, lacrosse and high school winter sports competitions. This is its first national political convention.

In the interest of equal time, the Ellerbe Becket–designed Wachovia Center in Philadelphia was the site of the 2000 Republican National Convention.

An innovator since its founding in 1909, Ellerbe Becket is a leader in architecture, engineering and the construction industry with office locations worldwide.
