Bars close by in the surrounding neighborhood, good clean sightlines, plentiful concessions/bathrooms, and two compressors/no building sharing with a basketball team or concerts so the ice is good. I liked the tighter arenas that have a 2nd level overhanging the first for atmosphere when it's a good crowd, but I'm not sure I've ever seen a modern version of that that had good amenities, and maybe just a steep vertical bowl is the way to go.
