Madison Square Garden is changing, but it won't be moving. The changes include a complete renovation to the entry. As reported by Newsday:

"We are committed to moving forward," said Hank Ratner, vice chairman of the Garden and Cablevision. "Our fans will get everything they want here. We are not going to be moving."

The Garden announced last week that it was pulling out of a proposed plan to build a new arena across the street at the Farley Post Office, to the dismay of city and state officials who felt a new Garden was the key to an economic development project on the west side of Manhattan.

The Garden's current plan is to use Cablevision funds to turn the inside of the arena into a state-of-the-art facility in time for the 2011-12 Rangers and Knicks seasons.

The following details Ellerbe Becket, the primary architects for the renovation:

• Client: Madison Square Garden (MSG)
• Owner: Madison Square Garden and Cablevision
• Tenant: NY Rangers (NHL); Knicks (NBA); Liberty (WNBA)
