Madison Square Garden

  • Location:
    Midtown Manhattan
  • Main Contractor:
    Gilston Electric
  • Period:
    2000
  • Project Description:

    Madison Square Garden is the oldest major sporting complex in the New York City area and the most famous arena in the world. Gilston Electric became the trusted partner for MSG’s first substantial electrical upgrade and renovation project in a decade. This electrical rehabilitation process therefore required careful navigation between original construction work and hi-tech electrical systems to ensure sound and broadcast quality worthy of the MSG name.

    Working with more than 2 million feet of cable in a 20,000-seat venue, Gilston wired and installed new high-definition broadcasting systems for the Garden’s sporting events and concerts on a fast-track schedule to avoid disrupting the season, as MSG hosts some 400 events every year.
