The Garden — MSG, the fourth building to carry the name — opened in 1968 on top of Penn Station and has never moved, which in Manhattan is the whole story: no parking lots, no plaza, just a circular arena stacked over the busiest rail terminal in the country. A billion-dollar renovation finished in 2013 hung two suspended bridges above the court, rebuilt every seat and replaced the ceiling.

MSG is a bowl of two halves. The lower level is close and level with the floor; the upper level is famously steep — the 200s begin high and rise hard, which is what gives the building its vertical, walls-of-people feel and also what makes the front rows there better than their price suggests. The bridges are their own thing: a handful of seats suspended over the court with a view nothing else in the league offers. Corners at any level are the value play, and the differences between sections here are bigger than the seating chart admits.
