The New York Islanders moved from Nassau Colisseum in Uniondale in 2013 and the Brooklyn Nets moved from East Rutherford, New Jersey and changed their name from the New Jersey Nets.
The arena's shape features three articulated bands with features a glass curtain wall covered by a "latticework" composed of 12,000 preweathered steel panels meant to evoke the image of Brooklyn's brownstones. A 117-by-56-foot (36 by 17 m) oculus extends over a 5,660-square-foot (526 m2) section of the plaza outside of the main arena entrance with an irregularly shaped display screen looping the interior face of the oculus. The arena floor's location below grade allows people in the plaza to view the scoreboard.
