Upcoming plans for The Event Center

It's not yet widely known but a significant item we came across recently was the upcoming expansions of both the San Jose State Student Union and -- more importantly to us since it houses Walt McPherson Court -- The Event Center on the San Jose State University campus.

Few actual specifics are known but we heard the cost was to be around $140 million for everything and that's obviously a significant project.

We don't believe this will increase the seating capacity for basketball but some of the changes for The Event Center do involve creating a better overall experience for attendees. Architecturally, The Event Center plans call for an outdoor amphitheater to be built with seating for around 2,000 and recreationally an indoor jogging track will be constructed.

We will keep you posted.
