The Toronto Maple Leafs are scheduled to move to the new Air Canada Centre in February of 1999.

The Air Canada Centre, located right in the downtown core, will be a world-class sports and entertainment facility and will be the premier arena for professional hockey and basketball in North America. Designed with the fans in mind, the focus is on intimacy and customer experience. The seating capacity for hockey will be 19,500 (including 1,500 fans in 150 Suites and 300 in Standing Room) with excellent sight-lines throughout.

The facility will also house a club restaurant and bar with a view of the ice. There will be televisions throughout the building, including all washrooms. One percent of seating in the building has been designed for the disabled, offering physically-challenged individuals a choice of various ticket prices.

The Air Canada Centre will have all of the characteristics of a first-class, technology-advanced facility while maintaining the spirit and legend associated with that of Maple Leaf Gardens.

Here is a picture of the interior of the new building.
