The Center is still considered one of the finest arenas in the country. The 20,000-seat sports and entertainment facility opened on October 1, 1988. The $91 million structure was a gift to the Milwaukee community and State of Wisconsin from the late Jane Bradley Pettit and her husband, Lloyd, in honor of her father, Harry Lynde Bradley. Mr. Bradley was one of the founders of the Allen-Bradley Co., a national manufacturer of electrical controls headquartered in Milwaukee (now a subsidiary of Rockwell International). Located in downtown Milwaukee, the BMO Harris Bradley Center covers more than one square city block and rises to a height of 13 stories. The exterior is clad in polished and flame-treated granite, with the same materiel used in the pedestals for the columns in the twin glass-enclosed, 60-foot-high signature atriums. The Center is extraordinarily fan-friendly, with wide, open concourses, multiple concessions and merchandise locations, and 28 large restrooms. The arena provides three levels of fan seating accommodations, including the private suite concourse, which is located just 30 feet above floor level while still allowing for over 7,200 fans to remain below. The ATI Club, at BMO Harris Bradley Center Suites, is Milwaukee's most unique sports experience. This club, located on the north end of the suite level, provides the ultimate setting for interacting with guests and enjoying Bucks basketball while indulging in the style and comfort of this private environment. Behind the scenes, the latest in computerized and electronic equipment controls the security, communications systems and interior environment for the facility. State-of-the-art electronics and interior circuitry assist the media in covering events at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. As many as four television stations are able to telecast simultaneously from any of three locations in the arena. In addition, members of the media may transmit as well as receive information within the building though multiple sources. In addition to the Milwaukee Bucks, the BMO Harris Bradley Center is also home to the Marquette University Men's Basketball team and the Milwaukee Admirals professional hockey team. The Center regularly hosts a variety of other extraordinary entertainment events including concerts, figure skating and family shows. The BMO Harris Bradley Center was designed by Hellmuth, Obata & Kassabaum of Kansas City, Missouri, and Venture Architects, which was a joint venture between the Milwaukee architectural firms of Kahler Slater, Torphy Architects and the Zimmerman Design Group. ACCOMODATIONS FOR THE DISABLED
For the Hearing and Visually Impaired: Bucks fans attending home games in the BMO Harris Bradley Center are able to listen to game broadcasts of Ted Davis, the "Voice of the Milwaukee Bucks", on their personal radios. The BMO Harris Bradley Center, in an effort to aide hearing and visually impaired patrons, installed a radio transmitter in the building at the outset of the 1993-94 campaign. While the system was designed to aid the hearing and visually impaired, all fans can enjoy the benefit. Any patron bringing an FM radio and tuning to 105.1 FM will be able to listen to the entire broadcast of the game from their seat.

The BMO Harris Bradley Center also has a number of portable "belt-pack" AM/FM radios and headsets as well as teleloops available at the Administration Office located on the north side of the outer east atrium.

In order for a patron to check out a radio at the BMO Harris Bradley Center Administration Office, a valid driver"s license is required for deposit.

THE BUCKS TRAINING CENTER  3501 South Lake Drive, Suite 100 Milwaukee, WI 53235 In September of 1997, the Milwaukee Bucks went state-of-the-art when they moved their basketball operations into a 35,000 square-foot wing of the Archbishop Cousins Center in St. Francis, WI. The Milwaukee Bucks Training Center, designed by Schroeder and Holt Architects, provides the team with a first-class, year-round facility dedicated to the athletic enhancement of Bucks players. Construction, improvements and equipment were completed at a cost of nearly $3 million. In 10 years since, continued upgrades have made the facility one of the finest in the NBA. The gym features a running and spring track, which encircles a regulation 94" x 50" basketball floor, with six additional baskets to accommodate shooting drills. Just off the court are spacious locker room and training room facilities, a recreation lounge, a hydrotherapy room and a 42" x 36" weight and conditioning room. The Bucks also have access to a full-length swimming pool that is adjacent to their headquarters. In the summer of 2006, the facility experienced a major makeover that coincided with the team"s new logo and colors. The makeover was highlighted with the completion of a new practice court that mirrors the design the team uses for games at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. |
