The Verizon Center, which is an arena in Washington, D.C., is a highly popular place that accommodates sports and entertainment functions held throughout the year. Because the Center is linked to telecommunication companies, it has been nicknamed the "Phone Booth."
The arena has been attributed to helping to convert the neighborhood which it is located in, "Gallary Place/Chinatown," into a very popular site for commercial development in Washington. Because of this, the city is flourishing with tourists and professional people which creates a healthy, money-making atmosphere to compliment this historical city.
Noted for home games of four sport tenants, the NHL's Washington Capitals, the NBA's Washington Wizards, the NCAA's Georgetown University Hoyas, and the WNBA's Washington Mystics, the Verizon Center is also popular for hosting all kinds of exciting events that draw enormous crowds.
The restaurants and well-acclaimed sports bars located in and around the arena can stand alone in drawing big crowds. The variety of foods offered, including Mexican, Latin American, Spanish, and many others, creates a wonderful enthusiasm among tourists who are continuously visiting the city.
The mixture of entertainment at the arena is suitable for people of all ages. A luxury suite, which holds between 18 and 22 guests, can be obtained to enhance the visit to the Verizon. There are many great perks available to those who would consider obtaining a membership to a luxury suite.
Holding up to 20,000 people comfortably with sight lines excellent for all entertainment and sporting events, the Verizon Center is a wonderful and fun place to visit, not only for sports and entertainment events, but for the pleasure of seeing a state of the art arena!
