TD Garden is a sports arena in Boston, MA which is currently home to the Boston Celtics of the NBA

On September 29, 1995, the old Boston Garden closed its doors to the public for the last time with a nostalgic evening of entertainment. The following night, a spectacular gala was held at the sparkling new FleetCenter to usher in a new era for sports and entertainment in New England.

On March 3, 2005, the FleetCenter era came to an end when TD Banknorth Inc. and Delaware North Companies reached an agreement on a 20-year deal to return the Garden name. Under the agreement, "TD Banknorth Garden" became the official name of the 19,600-seat, state-of-the-art facility through 2025.

With many of the historical reminders from the old structure having now been moved next door, the tradition of building memories begins again.
