With a strong commitment to hockey, Seattle proved they were NHL ready by partnering with Generator Studio to build the 172,000 square-foot Kraken Comunity Iceplex, located in Northgate, Seattle.
To grow hockey and make a commitment to the city of Seattle, Generator Studio designed a state-of-the-art, world-class NHL iceplex that serves as a home for youth and adults in the Pacific Northwest. “This facility is designed with three ice rinks that allow us to serve our community and is one of the finest NHL training facilities ever built,” Tod Leiweke, CEO, Seattle Kraken.
The facility is vital in changing the way of hockey in the area. Generator’s work with sports venues and NHL teams specifically, made us the perfect fit for this project. Our goal was to create a forward-thinking training facility that immerses the public and overall experience of hockey and entertainment.
The Kraken Community Iceplex features three NHL regulation ice sheets with spectator viewing, perfect for hosting community events. This, in fact, is the most public-facing NHL training center on the west coast.
