A n arena currently under construction at Sacred Heart University’s campus in Fairfield, Conn., set to house its hockey and figure skating programs will have a design feature not typically associated with indoor ice rinks: windows.
“Skating arenas rarely have windows, but we’re building a venue unlike any other,” said Marc Izzo, university vice president of construction and facilities management, in a statement. Izzo called it a “new and cutting-edge experience,” enabled by the university’s decision to install View Inc.’s Smart Windows at the Martire Family Arena.
