About TD Garden
TD Garden opened on September 30, 1995 as FleetCenter, replacing the legendary Boston Garden which stood next door from 1928 to 1998. Built at a cost of $160 million, the arena sits directly above North Station, providing seamless public transit access via the MBTA Green and Orange Lines and commuter rail.
The arena has been renamed several times — from FleetCenter to TD Banknorth Garden (2005) to its current name TD Garden (2009). It underwent a major $100 million renovation called 'The Hub on Causeway' which added a mixed-use development including shops, restaurants, and a boutique hotel directly connected to the arena. TD Garden has hosted multiple NBA Finals (including the Celtics' 2008 and 2024 championships), Stanley Cup Finals, NCAA tournaments, and major concerts.
