After long wait, $200 million Red Bull Arena set to open March 20

The 120-by-75-yard grass field (109-by-68 meters) is surrounded by seats just 21 feet from the touchlines under the design by Rossetti Architects. The 17th row is the farthest from the field in the lower deck. There are 30 luxury suites with a bi-level lounge, about 1,000 club seats, a bar for longtime season ticket holders and five locker rooms — enough to hold a neutral doubleheader without having to open the Red Bulls' private player areas. Six broadcasts booths provide enough space to hold major World Cup qualifiers.
