Future plans include addition of more seating which will nearly double the seating capacity, and a new lobby entrance.

Prudential Center
Teams: Basketball (Men's and Women's)
The Prudential Center, the newest arena in the NHL and the first major professional facility built in the New York Metropolitan area in more than 25 years, features numerous innovations. Among them is a 4,800-square foot exterior LED screen, one of the largest of its kind in the world.
The relationship between NJIT and the Prudential Center is a natural. 'The Rock' is the centerpiece of Newark's Downtown Core Redevelopment Project. NJIT, meanwhile, is an integral part of the city's educational, civic and economic life.
The arrival of the spectacular Prudential Center nearly coincides with NJIT's arrival as an NCAA Division I institution--the first in Newark and the newest in New Jersey in more than 20 years. 'The Rock' is opening one year after NJIT began Division I competition as part of its NCAA reclassification.
